A Workers’ International Network meeting – THE TAIWAN ELECTIONS: WHAT NOW? – Sunday 28th January 2024 at 4pm GMT
5 pm in central Europe and Nigeria, 6 pm in Greece, Cyprus, South Africa and Namibia, 7pm in Turkey, 9 pm in Pakistan, 9-30 pm in India and Sri Lanka, midnight in the Philippines and Taiwan, 8 am in California and 11am in New York.
On Sunday January 13, presidential and parliamentary elections were held in Taiwan, in a very polarised atmosphere. The Western powers celebrated the victory of the pro-Western DPP (Democratic Progressive Party) candidate Lai Ching-te. Was this a major blow for China, or a pyrrhic victory for the DPP?
Discussions about a possible military confrontation between China and Taiwan, with the involvement of the US and other Western powers, have been going on for quite a while in Western media. How is this perspective affected by the election results?
Su Sixian is a member of International Socialist Forward in Taiwan. He will introduce and discuss with us all the relevant issues, at the time of mounting geopolitical tensions between the West and China.

The Workers’ International Network is a worldwide network of labour activists fighting for socialism. We hold meetings every week bringing together activists from the front line of struggles worldwide to review collectively the lessons of their experiences. WIN meetings are recorded and posted online. If you have concerns about any personal security implications, once you have joined the meeting and before the recording has started you may wish to create an alternative ID and switch off your video.
Recordings of our WIN meetings over the last three years can all be viewed on our YouTube channel here and on WIN’s website here.
