Taiwan's Legislative Clash Highlights Concerns Over Democratic Norms

Credited from: SCMP

  • Intense clashes erupted in Taiwan’s legislature between the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and opposition legislators on December 20.
  • The DPP barricaded entrances to prevent opposition members from entering, leading to a chaotic scene with wrestling, kicking, and water throwing.
  • This violence, which marks a shift in Taiwanese political behavior, is seen as a troubling sign of democratic backsliding.
  • The DPP, now in a minority, aims to block opposition-led amendments, raising questions about its commitment to democratic principles.
  • Protesters supporting the DPP, dubbed the Bluebird Movement, further complicate the situation by opposing the legislative majority.
