In a move that’s ignited fierce debate, the Taiwan region’s Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities have ordered the expulsion of mainland Chinese spouses, including social media influencer Yaya, following her online comments supporting cross-strait unity. Separated from her husband and three children, Yaya’s case highlights growing tensions over freedom of speech and family rights.
A mainland expert on Taiwan studies calls the expulsions "legally baseless" and a violation of human rights. Critics argue the DPP’s actions target individuals expressing pro-reunification views, escalating fears among other mainland-born spouses living in Taiwan. 🌏⚖️
"This sets a dangerous precedent," the expert warns, emphasizing that the accusations of advocating 'reunification by force' lack legal grounding. Over 35,000 mainland spouses currently reside in Taiwan, many now questioning their security. 💬
