Taiwan moves to dissolve pro-Beijing party led by 'White Wolf' Chang An-lo

Friday, 14 August 2026, 06:20 · 1 min read

Taiwan's Ministry of the Interior has filed a formal request with the country's Constitutional Court to dissolve the Chinese Unification Promotion Party (CUPP), a fringe pro-Beijing group whose founder, Chang An-lo, is nicknamed the 'White Wolf' for his past ties to organised crime. The government alleges the CUPP accepted instructions from Beijing to run grassroots influence operations, recruited military personnel to spy for China, and used Chinese funding to interfere in elections — accusations Chang disputes. The move underscores deepening tensions over Chinese political influence in Taiwan (a self-governing democracy of 23 million people that Beijing claims as its own territory), though analysts warn that dissolving the party will do little to disrupt broader Chinese influence networks on the island.
