Taipei [Taiwan], July 9 (ANI): Taiwan has strongly criticised China for "glorifying" the assault on Taipei-based Japanese political commentator Akio Yaita as an act motivated by "righteous indignation", according to the Taipei Times.
Yaita, the chief executive officer of the Taiwan-based Indo-Pacific Strategy Think Tank, was punched in the face by a Chinese man surnamed Liao in Taichung on Monday. Taiwanese authorities have speculated that the incident could involve "transnational repression" and may be linked to China's recently implemented Ethnic Unity and Progress Promotion Law, the Taipei Times reported.
