Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Beijing hits back at Biden’s claims

For the People’s Republic of China (PRC), there is only one sovereign state under the name China, with the PRC serving as the sole legitimate government of that China, and Taiwan is a part of China. For the Kuomintang (KMT), Taiwan’s then ruling party when the 1992 consensus was made, the Republic of China (Taiwan) is not represented by the PRC even though it agrees that there is only one China. In the meanwhile, the US’s One China policy recognizes the PRC as the sole legal government of China but does not endorse the PRC’s position that Taiwan is part of China. Recently, the US is supporting Taiwan more openly for its independence from China, sending political delegates and selling more high-tech weapons. And on May 23 while visiting Tokyo, President Biden said that the US would intervene militarily to defend Taiwan should it be attacked. Since it is so obvious against which country the US would provide military support and action, China reiterated its firm stance that the Taiwan issue is nothing but China’s internal affair and should never be interfered with by others. You probably have heard or known what Western media are saying about the One China policy and Taiwan’s security. But it may be helpful to read what China claims about Taiwan and its response to the recent moves and announcements by the US.

Read the article to learn about the Taiwan issue from China’s viewpoint.
