Taiwan's opposition lawmakers successfully survived recall votes, but a referendum to restart nuclear power failed despite strong public support. The recall votes, following a similar attempt last month, aimed to shift legislative power back to the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) after their loss of majority in the 2024 election. While the referendum garnered almost three times more votes in favor than against, it didn't meet the required voter turnout threshold. The DPP, which shut down Taiwan's last nuclear reactor in May, now faces continued opposition pressure, especially with the Nationalist Party's collaboration with the Taiwan People's Party.
