    It’s a crisis because it looks like Ukraine sobered up people in Taiwan, and now DPP is tanking. If KMT gets back in then they’re most likely going to resume the process of repatriation which they started in 2014. US ran the sunflower revolution in response and that’s how DPP got into power.

        Reactionary they may be, but they managed to work out an agreement with the mainland in 2014 where Taiwan would recognize the mainland government and in exchange they’d have a representative in the government while being able to retain autonomy and their own military. This was the deal that US tanked by starting the whole sunflower movement thing.

        We’ve already seen KMT officials travel to the mainland in recent months, and prominent politicians openly say that they wouldn’t let Taiwan be turned into another Ukraine. I expect we will see repatriation happening if KMT does get into power along the lines that was discussed in 2014.
