Taiwan's opposition-controlled Legislative Yuan launched impeachment proceedings against President Lai Ching-te in December 2025 over disputes involving local government funding legislation, but the motion failed decisively on May 19, 2026, with only 56 votes in favor—well short of the two-thirds threshold of 76 required in the 113-seat chamber. Under Taiwan's constitutional rules, presidential impeachment requires initiation by at least half the legislators, passage by a two-thirds supermajority, and subsequent review by the Constitutional Court. With just over two weeks remaining until the June 30 cutoff and no new proceedings underway, traders see negligible scope for the required legislative steps to occur. The opposition's combined seats proved insufficient even in a unified push, and procedural timelines for hearings, reviews, and votes preclude rapid revival. Late-session maneuvers or unforeseen political shifts remain theoretically possible but lack any supporting momentum or numerical backing at present.
