Pan-blue lawmakers rule out buying Patriot missiles
Taiwan's Pan-blue legislators have indicated that they will not support the bill for the purchase of Patriot missile batteries.

They said that last year's referendum to boost missile defense failed to get the number of votes necessary to make a valid result.

Thus under Taiwan's referendum law, the arms bill cannot be proposed before March 2007.
