China accuses European Parliament members of interfering in its internal affairs after their meeting with Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te. Beijing emphasizes opposition to formal exchanges between the EU and Taiwan and reminds the EU of its commitments to the One-China Principle.

Taiwanese voters rejected a large-scale effort to recall opposition lawmakers from the Nationalist Party (KMT), dealing a blow to the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP). The recall aimed to shift legislative power but failed to remove any KMT lawmakers.
