Hofstra Law Professor Julian Ku was quoted in the Focus Taiwan CNA English News article “China expanding ‘lawfare’ efforts in bid to annex Taiwan: MAC head.”
Excerpt
Julian Ku (???), a law professor at the New York-based Hofstra University, said that the PRC’s new guidelines targeting Taiwan independence activists could affect not only Taiwanese people but also “anyone who engages in what they [the PRC] define as [support for] Taiwanese independence.”
People who the PRC deems to have violated the guidelines could also face extradition to China depending on bilateral treaties, he noted.
“I think what would be useful for the Taiwan government and other governments is to make clear that such application of Chinese law to Taiwanese people and other people outside of China is improper and illegal, and that countries will not abide by a request, as such request is illegal or inconsistent with the treaty,” he added.
