Taiwan is preparing for a historic recall vote targeting about one-fifth of its lawmakers, mostly from the opposition Kuomintang (KMT) party, who are accused by activists of being too close to China. The recall campaign has polarized the island, with supporters arguing it is a necessary democratic check and opponents warning of political overreach and instability. The government has accused China of actively trying to interfere in the process, backing opposition lawmakers and seeking to influence Taiwan's democracy. The outcome of the vote could significantly reshape Taiwan's parliament and impact its political direction. Both major parties, the KMT and the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), are mobilizing supporters as the vote approaches, while civil groups urge neutrality and vigilance against foreign meddling.
