全球海外台灣人譴責國家暴力與維護台灣民主團體連署
三月23日馬江政府以警政暴力回應台灣人民以非暴力運動反對「海峽兩岸服務貿易協議」的黑箱審議，國家暴力發生、民眾流血的當刻，馬江政權的正當性已不在。身在海外各地的我們，有留學生、有出國工作者，有個人，有團體，我們感謝連日來在台灣立法院、行政院與其他各地捍衛台灣民主的同胞，我們心痛台灣民主被國家機器掌控者所踐踏，嚴厲譴責國家暴力，要求政府當局負起全責。
我們呼籲：
一、 停止使用國家暴力血腥鎮壓，停止激化人民，馬江政權對暴力行動負責。
二、 退回現有服貿協議，建立兩岸民主協議機制，維護台灣的平等自由。
三、 我們呼應國內公民團體的訴求，要求朝野邀集公民社會，共同商討解決眼前的困局，讓台灣的民主再生。

Taiwanese
Abroad Denounce State Violence and Defend Taiwan’s Democracy Petition
(Organization)
On March 23, 2014, President
Ma Ying-jeou responded to Taiwanese citizens’ peaceful protest against the
Cross-Strait Services Trade Agreement with a violent crackdown. The Ma
administration lost its legitimacy when it turned against its own citizens and
harmed them. Taiwanese abroad everywhere support our fellow citizens who
occupied the Legislature and Executive Yuan in protest to guard Taiwan’s
democracy. We are deeply saddened that Taiwan’s hard-earned democracy has been
trampled on by its own government and we denounce the use of violence.
1. We demand President Ma to end the violent crackdown,
stop provoking the people, and take full responsibility for the
administration’s use of violence.
2. We support the protesters’ demand to nullify the
Cross-Strait Services Trade Agreement and allow for full democratic
participation in cross-strait negotiations.
3. We support the call by civic groups in Taiwan for
the Kuomintang government to work with opposition parties and civic groups to
resolve the current predicament in a peaceful manner and restore Taiwan's
democracy.
