The Presidential Office responds to the joint statement of scholars: Promoting aggression against Taiwan has already violated the bottom line of democracy and freedom of speech.
75 scholars issued a joint statement indicating that the space for freedom of speech in Taiwan has been compressed, calling on the government to protect free speech. Presidential Office spokesperson Guo Ya-hui emphasized that freedom of speech should respect different opinions, but promoting aggressive war and hate speech has violated international norms, challenging the bottom line of Taiwan's democratic system and freedom of speech.
