Kao An-kuo (Chinese: 高安國; pinyin: Gāo Ānguó) is a Taiwanese retired general.[2]

Life

In December 2014, he attended the China Cross-Strait Military Generals Forum held in Xiamen.[2]

In 2018, he established the "Taiwanese Military Government of the Republic of China" (Chinese: 中華民國台灣軍政府), aiming to overthrow the Taiwanese government.[3]

In 2021, Kao reportedly made a YouTube video in which he called the Taiwanese military to overthrow the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) leadership and surrender to China.[2][4] The video was widely condemned and sparked calls for him to be charged with treason.[2]
