Taiwan wants the biggest recall vote in its history later this week. The 24 MLAs in the list are from all the largest opposition party, Kuomintang (KMT).
On Wednesday, the council of Taiwan’s mainland Affairs said it was clear and clear that the Chinese Communist Party was trying to interfere in Taiwan’s democratic process.
“Remember in Taiwan is a guarantee of a civil right by the Constitution, and it is up to the people of Taiwan to decide who should be removed from the office or not.” The council of Taiwan’s mainland affairs said on its social media.
Who started remembering?
The recall campaign was launched by civil groups, accusing KMT MPs of being very close to Beijing, who sees Taiwan as his territory.
China’s Taiwan affairs office and Chinese state media have repeatedly commented on recall votes, urging Taiwan’s voters to oppose it and echo the major talks used by KMT.
To remember Suk paid, one must overtake the number of votes against the number of votes in the side. The constituency should have 25% of the voters registered in the constituency.
Political crisis in Taiwan
Although President Lai Ching-T won last year’s election, his Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) lost its parliamentary majority. Since then, the opposition has been used under the control of the legislature to pass the bills opposed by the government and the major budget cuts have been implemented, especially related to defense spending to protect against Chinese threats.
China has rejected several proposals for Lai’s talks, branding “separatist” and military pressure against Taiwan.
KMT refuses to be a supporter-meinging. The party emphasizes an open dialogue with China and recalls a “malicious” attack on democracy that disregards the results of the previous year’s parliamentary election.
Most people in Taiwan mainly identify as Taiwan. For a survey conducted by the National Chengchchi University Election Study Center, only 2.3% of Taiwan people consider only Chinese.
The Chinese government claims that Taiwan is a democratically self-explained island, a broken province that should be “reunited” with the mainland by force when necessary.
