![]() Lawmakers clashed in Taiwan’s legislature Friday when members of the president’s political party who had broken into the building overnight to occupy the speaker’s chair tussled with members of another major party who forced their way in to evict them. Some lawmakers were injured in the clash, according to Taiwan media reports, though it wasn’t clear how seriously. At issue were three bills that the Nationalist Party, or Kuomintang, was trying to push through, including one that critics say would paralyze the Constitutional Court. |
