Taiwan's Ruling Party Expels Five Members Accused of Spying

Taiwan's ruling party, the DPP, kicked out five members.

The members were accused of spying for China, which claims Taiwan as its territory.

China and Taiwan have spied on each other for years, but experts say the risk is higher for Taiwan due to potential invasion.

The DPP stated that the members' actions broke the law and party rules.

Among those expelled was a former aide to the national security chief.

Taiwan has seen a rise in prosecutions for spying for China, especially among military members.

The DPP wants to protect national security.

China views Taiwan as part of its territory, which Taiwan denies.
