On June 27, 2024, Nationalist Party legislator Chen Yu-chen disrupted a Democratic Progressive Party press conference, leading to a verbal altercation. Following accusations by pro-green media of espionage by a New China News Agency reporter at a Taiwan political program taping, Chen was accused of monitoring a DPP press conference. The Nationalist Party criticized the DPP for baselessly insinuating ties to the Chinese Communist Party without proof, questioning why the DPP was attacking them. The Nationalist Party questioned the DPP's credibility, alleging a trend of spreading rumors and smearing the opposition. The Nationalist Party demanded a thorough investigation by relevant authorities to verify these claims. This comes after the DPP faced backlash for discussing alleged Chinese influence via Taoist temples in Taiwan, without substantial evidence, and accused of ideological censorship and baseless accusations.
