Taiwan Faces Unprecedented Recall Vote Amid China Interference Allegations

Taiwan is preparing for a historic recall vote targeting nearly one-fifth of its parliament, with 24 opposition Kuomintang (KMT) lawmakers facing possible removal. The campaign, led by civic groups, accuses these lawmakers of being 'pro-China' and acting against Taiwan's interests, while the KMT urges supporters to vote 'no' and claims the recalls are politically motivated. China has openly backed the opposition, raising concerns in Taipei about foreign interference in Taiwan's democratic process. The outcome could significantly reshape Taiwan's legislative balance and has sparked intense rallies and debate across the country. This recall movement highlights deep divisions over Taiwan's relationship with China and the future of its democracy.
