In 1894, Japan invaded China and Korea, the Qing govt of China was defeated and signed the [Treaty of Shimonoseki] to cede Taiwan Island to Japan. During the WW2, at the Cairo Conference held in 1943, China requested the transfer of Taiwan's sovereignty back to China after the war. This content was included in the [Cairo Declaration] and later reiterated in the [Potsdam Proclamation] that it should be implemented. On 14 Aug & 2 Sept 1945, the Emperor and govt of Japan issued the [End War Edict] and [Japanese Instrument of Surrender] respectively, Japan surrendered and accepted the [Potsdam Proclamation]. The Japanese troops in Taiwan surrendered to KMT General Chiang Kai-Shek, Taiwan re-entered the territory of the Republic of China (ROC). Soon after that China civil war broke out between KMT and CPC, the KMT was defeated and fled to Taiwan. However, due to US's intervention, the CPC without a strong navy at that time has no ability to unify Taiwan. The CPC then established the People's Republic of China (PRC) in 1949. Since then, in both PRC’s and ROC’s constitutions, both claimed to be the legitimate government of China, which consisted of Mainland China+Taiwan Island in its entirety, with Taiwan being a province of China. In 1971, UN Resolution No. 2758 ruled that the PRC had obtained the representation rights and all legal rights originally owned by the ROC in the UN. In the Joint Cummunique on the Establishment of Diplomatic relations between the PRC and the USA (16th December 1978), President Jimmy Carter announced: "The USA recognizes the Government of the PRC as the sole legal Government of China. Within this context, the people of the USA will maintain cultural, commercial, and other unofficial relations with the people of Taiwan". That means the PRC is China's only legal govt under international law, and today the PRC also become China's only legal govt recognized by 183 countries around the world, INCLUDING the USA. As such, the ROC has no more embassy in America, UK, France, Japan, Germany, Italy, etc, and they were replaced by PRC embassies in these countries. Therefore, according to international laws, international diplomatic reality, and the wishes of the overwhelming majority of the combined 1.4 billion people from both sides, the PRC has every rights to protect its sovereign integrity. Today, the government in Taiwan is no more than remnants of China’s former government. There’s zero difference if in 1949 the remnants had fled for Jiangxi, Jiangsu or Hunan, instead of Taiwan. They are all a part of China in exactly the same way. They did not automatically become another country just because the remnants fled there. If some remnants of the China former government had fled to the United States, would the United States have become the ROC as well? Taiwan has never been an independent country by itself, NEVER, in any history records. Taiwan was a province of that country called the ROC, and now a province of the PRC. Even the 12 small countries like Eswatini or Tuvalu which recognize the ROC as “China”, did not recognize Taiwan as a country, but rather a province of the ROC. Yes, Taiwanese have their own passports, but Hong Kong and Macao people have their own passports too, but they are still a part of China. If Catalonians decides to print their own passports today, that doesn’t mean Catalonia is an independent country tomorrow. If Taiwan decides to go for independence, just like Catalonia or Scotland is trying to, it’s all China’s domestic matter. It has nothing to do with other countries. But the US has been sending billions dollar worth of arm weapons to Taiwan. In 1962, the US sent missiles to Turkey & Italy, and in response, the USSR sent missiles to Cuba, and the Cuban Missile Crisis broke out. Likewise, in 2021 Aug, Zelensky visited Washington to seek support for NATO membership, 6 months later Russia invaded Ukraine. World Superpowers never allowed another country sending strategic arm weapons CLOSE to their borders, let alone WITHIN its regions like the US is doing to Taiwan which is WITHIN China. The PRC has been EXTREMELY patient with Taiwan govt: As long as Taiwan doesn’t declare independence, Mainland China has been at peace with it. America will fight the PRC to the last Taiwanese.

@@jchung5265 Same modus operandi over and over again. Four steps of a color revolution/coup d’etat: Step1: funding of NGOs in the targeted countries by the C.I.A./N.E.D. to lay the ground work. Step2: when a legitimate issue arises, pounce on the opportunity. For example: • the initial protest in Maidan which started in 2013 Nov was a legitimate protest against a corrupted Yanukovchy government, but neo-Nazi radical units like the Right Sector and the C14 which set fire on the Maidan Square for 3 months, was sponsored by the N.E.D. (the leader of Right Sector admitted in a video saying without them setting fire in the protest, the protest would be just a “gay parade”). • The initial protest after the introduction of the extradition bill in Hong Kong in 2019 was a genuine protest by ordinary Hong Kongers, but the subsequent violent riots which saw subways being burned down, Molotov cocktails being thrown at police were, orchestrated by the M.i.6 and the N.E.D. • Similarly, the gas price hike in Kazakhstan in Jan 2022 was a legitimate issue, but the subsequent riots which saw head choppers being deployed, were funded by the N.E.D. Step3: escalate riots until bloodshed happens and force the government to resign. Example: over 100 died in Maidan coup, successfully forced Yanukovchy to resign. Step4: installing the party favored by America to be the new government. Example: As exposed by a leaked phone call, Victoria Nuland handpicked Yatsenyuk to be the new Ukrainian Prime Minister after the Maidan coup in 2014

The U.S and U.N resolution 2758 did not say anything about the sovereignity of Taiwan, it never said that Taiwan as part of China or anything. Second, when Japan officially renounced its right over Taiwan in 1952, neither the Communist China government nor the Republic of China government was there to receive it. Also, legally speaking, declarations such as Cairo Declaration or Postdam declaration are not legally binding like treaties and communist China never one day signed a treaty receiving Taiwan. As for the U.S stance, the U.S only acknowledge that it is China's point of view that Taiwan is a part of it but the U.S has never officially recognized that as a fact, the U.S still maintains robust unofficial relationship with Taiwan and is legally bound to protect Taiwan by the Taiwan Relation Act. Furthermore, if we look at the U.S recent political and military moves, the country is strengthening Taiwan to deter Chinese invasion, from military aids, to training, to selling weapons. The fact is that, Taiwan has never been a part of Communist China for a single second, it's rights and sovereignity have never been given to China and China is trying to twist that fact using raw strength to coerce other countries to not recognize Taiwan. The R.O.C is the occupying force on Taiwan and is never actually legally recognize by the majority of Taiwanese people.

I’m sorry to burst your bubble but as a western-born 华人 I have been through it all and I used to believe in western superiority and believed everything that’s been said about China.

However, the two sides of the Strait have different opinions as to the meaning of 'one China" (later adopted by the now-defunct National Unification Council of ROC). Despite the disagreement, both parties can maintain amicable relations.

It's kind of a blessing considering that some might have gotten smashed during the Cultural Revolution. But if Taiwan is not part of China, then these artifacts do not belong in Taiwan. DPP has been revising textbooks erasing Taiwan's Chinese heritage. Haven't heard them offering to return all of China's historical wealth that were taken to Taiwan and eventually used to help build Taiwan to what it is now. BTW the DPP president only got only 40% of the vote with a 72% turn out. So effectively 28.8% of eligible voters voted for this war path vs 43.1% who voted against, and 28.1% who didn't bother to vote. His supporters still think the West will defend Taiwan with boots on the ground and not just military aid in the form of drones and weapons, that Taiwanese won't be the only one fighting for their lives like Ukrainians have been in recent years. This with military draft that was reduced to 4 months during DPP rule & only raised back up to 1 year recently vs professional armies of China. (Back in the 70s under KMT it was 2-year draft.) Taiwan could have had more negotiation options if they had chosen the other presidential candidates, one of whom is also a lot less corrupt and more rational and effective at delivering benefits for the people. As it is, the 29% have removed the peaceful reunification option or even the status quo option off the table for the remaining 71%.

Yes Ms Raimondo said, not realizing Taiwan constitution states Taiwan is an intrinsic a part of China as well as her own US President reminded people last year they're under one government as mentioned above 😊 😮 The news was obviously trying to confuse people with Pelosi quotes, and the official story. The people of Taiwan know mostly everyone is related to the mainland and no one wants battle. The retired generals agree, they dought any battle in the future as business is growing 👍

Unfortunately, this current president already effectively declared independence during the inaugural speech by framing it as 2 sovereign countries - ROC & PROC - on either side of the strait. That's why we've seen escalation of Chinese military exercises surrounding Taiwan and recent Chinese definition of separatist acts of treason and associated punishment. Effectively sending clear signal that China won't tolerate any further separatist spins and pushing of boundaries. So this president has effectively made the best outcome for Taiwanese that much harder. Taiwan cannot exactly pick up the whole island and move to the coast of the US. It will always have to deal with China. One may argue that those fighting for their own sovereignty will fight harder and be a thorn forever, but a bigger portion might find it's not worth fighting if offer of a decent life is on the table. Unlike with Palestinians, China is not trying to ethnically cleanse Taiwan of its current population. And life in China is not as dire as Taiwanese gov controlled media brainwashed Taiwanese into believing. It boggles my mind when people claim Taiwanese wants this or that, as if brainwashing doesn't play a part in what they say they want. The only thing that's certain is most people want a decent live and be able to have grievances affecting this addressed by the gov. Protesting and voting aren't the only way to accomplish that. In fact, we've seen how both could produce very little change for the better in many supposedly democratic countries, and how many in such countries don't trust their elected gov or don't even vote.

The Chinese civil war never officially ended. It's just on hiatus now. Whether it will be peace or war next is a matter up to the Chinese people on both sides to decide. The US has a history of meddling in internal business of other countries despite having absolutely no right to do so. From Korea, Vietnam to Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan. Americans also provided military aid to KMT party during the civil war but they still lost. Today's China is a nuclear powerhouse and the biggest economy in the world on PPP measures. If the US wants to pull out a Ukraine in Taiwan it won't end well - for both the US and the entire world.

[@nigellawson8610]

If the Americans got into a war with China they would get seriously hurt, which is something they are not used to. Since America’s debacle in Vietnam, they have always been careful to attack enemies that are far weaker than themselves. As one foreign leader once observed, the US could not handle losing one hundred thousand men in a single battle. If the Americans pick a fight with China, they will be fighting the most powerful industrial nation in the World. They will also be faced with the daunting logistical task of conducting major military operations against a peer power thousands of miles from their homeland. The Chinese on the other hand, will be fighting in their own backyard. Therefore, the Chinese will enjoy escalation dominance, which would confer a major advantage over the US. In a long war with America, the Chinese would probably emerge the winner due to their superior productive capacity and social cohesion. It is worth noting that the American elites are fully aware of the fact that the Chinese are growing stronger both economically and militarily while the US is growing weaker as time goes on? Therefore, if the Americans do decide to settle accounts with the Middle Kingdom, they will have to go to war against the Chinese within the next few years. If they wait any longer the Chinese in the Western Pacific will be unassailable once they are able to achieve technical and operational parity with US Navy and airforce, which at this particular juncture in time is still unrivalled in power, reach, sophistication, and professionalism.

But when they’re, directly or indirectly, supporting the US military dictatorship around the world, then they also betray the Palestinian cause. I think they are aware of this, but again, since “socialism” or “communism” is a scarier word for them than Western imperialism and liberal capitalism, they consequently support the western imperialist endeavor to create separatist movements within China and US/NATO military bases around China to encircle it so the US can threaten it with nuclear bombs to, first “contain” it, and then to completely eliminate it, to destroy socialism all around the world, so it can continue its all-destructive and self-destructive development to the very end of humanity (maybe Zuckerberg and a few others will survive in that case).

[@jorgi6335]

@@thematthew761 First and foremost because it’s always been apart of China. ROC has never recognized PRC as the government of China. They have seen themselves as the only legitimate rulers of China. Taiwan has always been a province within China, according to both PRC and ROC, and mostly every other country in the world. The only reason they’ve been able to maintain their bourgeois dictatorship (i.e. “liberal democracy”) is that the US has backed them with millions and millions of dollars for military support. Also hundreds of NGOs and capitalist media influence to foster separatist sentiments and movements within the region. And additionally, in a hypothetical world, where China would let the separatists declare independence, the US would put lots and lots of military bases with nuclear weapons, just a few miles away from the mainland coast. For China to allow something like that, would of course be nothing else than plain suicide. Don’t trust the mainstream, Western, corporate media. They lie to you, and they’re all one and the same, from CNN to Fox News. Their differences and “culture wars” are just distractions. If you see beyond them you realize that they’re all just corporate media, defending capitalism and imperialism, which hurts us all. Seek independent media. And not the fascist kind; because even though they may seem independent and contrarian, they are in reality more often than not heavily financed. Fascism has never been grassroot, it’s always been astroturfed to power, like it’s becoming now in the US and in Europe, when people lose faith in the liberal paradigm, like they did in the 1930’s. The only real contrarian, grassroots movement you can find are socialist/communist ones. They don’t receive any money whatsoever, if they’re not outright censored or prosecuted.
