20231226-3在台灣島上不存在一個主權獨立國家。 於1945年9月2日,日本帝國代表與美國為首9國代表在停靠於日本東京灣的美國軍艦密蘇里號戰艦上舉行日本帝國投降儀式,日本帝國外務大臣重光葵正式簽署日本帝國〈降伏文書〉。 於1945年9月2日,美國參謀長聯席會議制定、杜魯門總統核准且授權盟軍最高指揮官麥克阿瑟將軍發佈〈一般命令第一號〉軍令(military order)給其指揮的盟軍各戰區指揮官執行‘’接受日本帝國軍隊投降及軍事佔領接管日本帝國領土‘’任務。 自1945年9月2日起,福爾摩沙人民的法理敵人(de jure enemy)美國一直對福爾摩沙行使軍事佔領權力而承擔管理福爾摩沙責任、負有處置福爾摩沙責任、有義務維護福爾摩沙主權完整、擁有福爾摩沙事實主權及擁有福爾摩沙事實統治權限。 於1945年10月25日,奉美國〈一般命令第一號〉軍令(military order)所指示的盟軍中國戰區(China theater)指揮官蔣介石指派代表陳儀及其指揮的中國國民政府軍隊執行‘’接受日本帝國軍隊投降及軍事佔領接管福爾摩沙‘’任務。 在中國,於1946年1月12日,中華民國行政院發佈一項違反美國陸軍戰場手冊第6章佔領第358條〔佔領不移轉主權〕及違反美國陸軍部所規定的戰爭法其中之一〔企圖褫奪被佔領地居民的國籍為戰爭犯罪行為〕的行政命令給在福爾摩沙執行軍事佔領接管的陳儀。該行政命令追溯至1945年10月25日起,將福爾摩沙人民的日本國籍恢復成中華民國國籍。 在中國,於1949年10月1日,隨著中國國民黨政府被中國共產黨消滅而流亡至美國正在行使軍事佔領權力下的日本領土福爾摩沙,中國國民黨政府使用的中華民國名稱被中國共產黨政府使用的中華人民共和國名稱所取代。 在台灣,自1949年10月1日起,福爾摩沙人民的法理敵人(de jure enemy)中華民國政府已經是沒有國家的流亡政府,且中華民國人民已經是沒有國家的流亡人士。 於1949年11月20日,中華人民共和國外交部長周恩來致函聯合國秘書長聲明:中華人民共和國中央人民政府是唯一代表所有中華人民共和國人民的合法政府。中華人民共和國中央人民政府已根本地解放所有中國的領土與人民且贏得全國人民的熱烈支持,同時國民黨反動主義政府現在流亡(in exile)中且解散,並且其殘餘部隊將很快地被消除。這個反動主義政府已喪失代表中國人民的一切法理及事實根據(de jure and de facto grounds)。 於1949年11月30日,美國參議員史密斯與美國國務卿艾奇遜會談時提及福爾摩沙表示,儘管根據《開羅宣言》我們已經允許中國人接管,但我們軍事佔領“嚴格來說仍然是日本一部分”(“still strictly speaking a part of Japan”)的福爾摩沙將具有保護美國在福爾摩沙的戰略利益。 On November 30, 1949, U.S. Senator Smith mentioned Formosa during a meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Acheson and stated that such a military occupation on our part of Formosa would protect our strategic interests in that area which I regarded as “still strictly speaking a part of Japan,” even though by the Cairo Declaration we had permitted the Chinese to take over. 依照1952年4月28日生效的舊金山和平條約第2(b)條規定,日本應該放棄福爾摩沙的法理主權及法理統治權限,但沒有國家應該取得福爾摩沙的法理主權及法理統治權限。 依照1952年4月28日生效的舊金山和平條約第4(b)條規定,日本承認第2條與第3條所提到之任何地區內由美國軍事政府(United States Military Government)制定或依照美國軍事政府的命令處分日本與日本國民的財產的有效性。 依照1952年4月28日生效的舊金山和平條約第23(a)條規定,美國做為軍事佔領含福爾摩沙在內日本領土的第一佔領權力國(the principal occupying Power)。 在台灣,自1952年4月28日舊金山和約生效起,福爾摩沙人民已經是沒有國家但仍然擁有日本國籍的人。 世界上,包含台灣海峽兩岸的中華民國流亡政府及中華人民共和國,沒有一個國家有權利可以主張擁有台灣的法理主權及法理統治權限。 依照聯合國憲章第11章關於非自治領土的宣言第73條原則之規定,對福爾摩沙行使軍事佔領權力而承擔管理福爾摩沙責任的美國,有義務幫助福爾摩沙人民發展自治。 於1979年1月1日,美國政府終止與中華民國流亡政府之外交關係,並且實行由美國國會制定並由美國總統簽署生效而屬於美國國內法的台灣關係法。依此,美國政府不再承認中華民國流亡政府而是承認台灣島上統治當局(the governing authorities on Taiwan)有管理台灣的權限。就美國這項外交政策改變的意義而言,對台灣行使軍事佔領權力而承擔管理台灣責任及擁有台灣事實主權的美國政府終於正式允許台灣人民行使自治權。換句話說,台灣島上統治當局就是美國軍事政府/當局佔領的自治領土台灣島上自治當局(the self-governing authorities on Taiwan, an autonomous territory occupied by the United States military government/authorities)。 依照1979年1月1日生效的美國台灣關係法第3.2條規定,對臺灣防衛需要的判斷應包括美國軍事當局(United States military authorities)向總統及國會提供建議時的檢討報告。 於2015年11月7日,美國國防部長卡特在加州西米谷雷根總統圖書館內舉辦的雷根國家防衛論壇上發言表示,我們也正在根本地改變我們作戰上的計劃及方法,以阻止侵略、履行我們對台灣的法定義務(fulfill our statutory obligations to Taiwan)、保衛各盟邦及為我們傳統上在此地區未曾遭遇過範圍較廣泛的突發事件做準備。 On November 7, 2015, U.S. Secretary of Defense Carter remarked at the Reagan National Defense Forum held at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California, and said that "We are also changing fundamentally our operational plans and approaches to deter aggression, fulfill our statutory obligations to Taiwan, defend allies, and prepare for a wider range of contingencies in the region than we have traditionally." 於2004年10月25日,美國國務卿鮑爾表示,‘’我們的政策是明確的。僅有一個中國。台灣不是獨立的。台灣並不享有做為一個國家的主權,這一直是我們的政策,我們的堅定政策。‘’ On October 25, 2004, the US Secretary of State Colin Powell stated that "Our policy is clear. There is only one China. Taiwan is not independent. It does not enjoy sovereignty as a nation, and that remains our policy, our firm policy." 於2014年4月3日,美國國務院東亞暨太平洋事務處助理國務卿羅素丹尼爾向美國參議院對外關係委員會東亞暨太平洋事務小組委員會作證提出證詞時表示,美國強烈支持台灣自治。 On April 3, 2014, Daniel Russell, Assistant Secretary of State for the Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs of the US Department of State, stated in testimony before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations Subcommittee on East Asian and Pacific affairs that the United States strongly supports Taiwan autonomy. 於2016年12月17日,美國總統歐巴馬表示,台灣人已經同意,只要他們能夠繼續運作某種程度的自治,他們就不會往前衝且宣佈獨立。 On December 17, 2016, the US President Barack Obama stated that Taiwanese have agreed that as long as they are able to continue to function with some degree of autonomy, they won't charge forward and declare independence. 台灣目前的政治狀態:台灣是1952年4月28日舊金山和約生效日自日本分離而尚未獨立且目前仍然處於美國行使軍事佔領權力而承擔管理責任下的自治領土。 台灣目前的法理地位:台灣最終法理主權歸屬尚待法理敵人美國(軍事佔領權力國)決定。 在台灣,中華民國流亡政府(台灣島上統治當局)只擁有台灣的事實統治權限,但不擁有台灣的法理主權與事實主權(de jure and de facto sovereignty)。 在台灣,福爾摩沙人民向不擁有台灣法理主權與事實主權而僅擁有台灣事實統治權限的中華民國流亡政府要求台灣獨立是錯誤的,而福爾摩沙人民向不擁有台灣法理主權但擁有台灣事實主權的美國要求台灣獨立才是正確的。 在台灣,福爾摩沙人民主張台灣獨立且成功達成是有難度,除非目前仍然對台灣行使軍事佔領權力的美國(軍事佔領權力國)同意且支持或福爾摩沙人民的武裝部隊將美國軍事政府/當局(United States military government/authorities)與中華民國流亡政府驅逐出台灣。 在台灣,不存在法理主權者及法理統治權限者日本(母國),只存在事實主權者美國(軍事佔領權力國)及事實統治權限者中華民國流亡政府(台灣島上統治當局)。 在未來,美國很可能將永遠對台灣行使軍事佔領權力,而美國將把台灣歸還給日本也是有可能的。
China very bad and greedy
What language do you speak? What culture do you abide by? Indiginous peoples aside, I think claiming that you are not Chinese is more complex than the world understands it to be. Are you claiming that you are not a Chinese national? Or are you claiming that you are not an Ethnic Chinese. What the western media fail to understand, is that China is an ethnostate, much like other East Asian nations. One does not simply claim that they are not a Chinese national without also forgoing their Chinese ethnic identity.
Taiwanese people are mostly Austronesians... Chinese cultures were learned...
Taiwanese does not have an identity issue. The Chinese KMT political party forced Taiwanese to be Chinese with all kinds of brutality.
Is ROC dead? 😂 Taiwanese are Chinese.
4:44 This is less objective and more subjective. Many people say that Chiang Kai-shek is totalitarian. Why did he impose martial law? I think the main reason is that he is afraid of the Communist Party. The Communist Party’s brainwashing culture is definitely not inferior to Western education and culture. After Xie Xuehong and Lin Mushun finished their courses in Moscow, they accepted the instructions of the Comintern and were ordered to contact the Communist Party of Japan and return to China to organize the "Taiwan National Branch of the Communist Party of Japan", the Communist Party of Taiwan. Xie Xuehong is considered a pioneer of Taiwan's socialist revolution and enjoys the reputation of "Taiwan's first female revolutionary". She was also a participating organizer of the Taichung 27th Unit that insisted on using force to resist the Nationalist Government during the February 28th Incident. After the 27th Unit failed to resist the Nationalist Army of the Republic of China, it moved to Xiamen and then to British Hong Kong.
Filipinos must defend themselves
Taiwan's current political condition is that Taiwan was separated from Japan on April 28, 1952, when the San Francisco Peace Treaty came into effect, but has not been independent yet, and it is now still an autonomous territory where the United States exercises military occupation power over it and thus assumes responsibility for the administration of it. 台灣目前的政治狀態:台灣是1952年4月28日舊金山和約生效日自日本分離而尚未獨立且目前仍然處於美國行使軍事佔領權力而承擔管理責任下的自治領土。 Taiwan's current de jure status is that the attribution of Taiwan's de jure ultimate sovereignty remains to be determined by the de jure enemy, the United States(the military occupying Power). 台灣目前的法理地位:台灣最終法理主權歸屬尚待法理敵人美國(軍事佔領權力國)決定。
Lovely documentary! Keep up the great work 👏
The Qing Dynasty was Manchu and considered a foreign occupation in the era. Also the Qing didn't control the entire island. They were largely limited to the flatlands west of the mountains and the large ports and Suao area. The US secured Formosa from Japan at the end of WW2. MacArthur made a "diplomatic" error by not sending a US military envoy to receive the island on behalf of the Allied Forces. Thus allowing the ROC to set the narrative. (This would l come back to "bite" MacArthur when the US President "fired" him. -- Read the Foreign Affairs Committee meeting minutes. )
Chinese by ethnicity, Taiwanese by culture and politics. There is your answer.
蚍蜉撼树,螳臂挡车
What rubbish this guy is talking..go google the racial composition of Taiwan. ..It is 95% Han Chinese ancestory..speaks the same language,share the same culture and religion as mainland China..The othe 5% are Astronesian Taiwanese indigenous Natives ( akin to the Indian Natives of America which are place in Indian Reserves ?) . The island of Taiwan sadly is the result of the unfinished Chinese Civil War between the CCP and Chiang Kai Shek Nationalist Party. It was unfinished because with US military might interference it made the last major objective of unification stall..Unlike Hainan island which was much nearer to Chinese mainland the CCP was able to finish the job.With the obvious decline in US military and Economic Dorminance( compare the 1990s and today) vis a vis China..hopefully The Taiwanese Chinese would chose Peace Prosperity and Harmony with its other 1.5 Billion Chinese kinsmen either in A Federation? Or a Highly Autonomous Province within China Territorial Integrity. Obviously one or 2 nations would not welcome the reconciliation of the Two Chinese parties for their self geopolitical interest but the overwhelming Chinese Societies and Population ALL over the globe ..desire for a reconciled outcome that finally end peacefully this People Republic of China v Republic of China Civil war.. And Funally Yes The island of Taiwan is a Beautifull place with its Han Chinese People and Culture and Religion.....
Taiwan is Chinese.
Freedom of navigation at stake. No country can claim the entire sea.
The KMT came to Taiwan with military force and took land and property away from the native Taiwanese people.
There was a period qing ruled Taiwan too
@@imjanng Yes. For the most part of Taiwan's history it was part of China.
have you been living in a cave? the Taiwanese government already officially apologized for its past atrocities.
@@lominiski oh, comment section infested by ccp trolls
@@user-ci4ri3el3c Most be an idiot answering like that. Did the Taiwanese accept? How is ah Bien?
The more concerning issue is the hate-driven education and propaganda against China by the DDP and green media over the past decade. If one day the CCP presents these facts to the people within the Wall, it could become very frightening.
This is what makes Taiwan, its listening to everyone but not recognize globally. Such irony
Taiwan does not have glass hearts like China. We are self-confident enough we don't need other's confirmation.
👍
Don't be misled. We already"reunited" with China in 1945 and that was a disaster. You can't reunite twice. We are now on our own. We are Taiwan, wr are all Taiwanese, not Chinese.
Don't be missed. Taiwan was already part of China in the 19th centuries and even before that. It was never OFFICIALLY a country of its own. It was ruled by Ming and Qing Dynasty which are both part of Chinese history.
@@kevinmiller9760 not a single day with Ming. Qing yes and same for the 3 million km^2 land given to Russia. For the last 140yrs, only 1945-1949 China was able to scrape our resources that caused 40000 times of inflation. A pretty big disaster. Taiwan has never been governed by the PRC(Party's Royal China). If its legit to claim Taiwan today, it would be even more legit to claim the land from the Russians. Foriegn power to be expelled.
@@TaiwanNationStatusQuo 1945 Government didn't claim them back, which was different from Taiwan. Listen, it was not a matter, like no one cares who owned Taiwan before 1945, what it matters is that China owned Taiwan between 1945 - 1949. People can argue if it's given back or it was given to, but it belonged to China in 1945 - 1949 was non negotiable. So let me summarize it for ya, 1945 China received Taiwan, 1946, civil war breaks out(at the Taiwan was already part of China like Shanghai or Canton or whatever ), 1949, Taiwan became the last existing territory. So what happened to Taiwan before 1945 didn't really matter as much, if the civil war broke out in 1936 or 1926, it would be a different story.
@@kevinmiller9760 technically the China at that time is the KMT, not the CCP. KMT went to Taiwan, ccp tried to catch up but stopped on the Mainland. So that is why Taiwan does not belong to ccp.
USA ❤ TAIWAN
Donald Trump does not recognize Taiwan. Trump 2024. MAGA
You can’t use Taiwan.. All this is caused by the Chinese Kuomintang
The ccp is too greedy and full of sh….ts
This video is obvious make by some unrealistic view of the island. Taiwan is a Chinese territory and it is a province of China 🇨🇳.
@@danlan3433 Taiwan has never been part of China. Collect your 五毛。
Why don't you go troll other pro-ccp channels instead
Turn off your VPN and crawl back over your CCP firewall please. Lies and propaganda have no place here in the free world.
There are aboriginals. For sure. But the so called Taiwanese language is definitely Minnan language. There's a lot of cross straits blood between Fujian and Taiwan. Aboriginals are a minority. Taking a DNA test will confirm everything. No need to rewrite history. Not sure about the inclusion of aboriginals. That's a separate lesson for aboriginal descendents.
I have a a lot of sacarsm if you get an English man here and start talking about Aboriginals. Are you saying to kick out White Americans from USA? The majority of Taiwanese ain't aboriginals just like the majority of Americans ain't native Indians. LOLS.
People and nations are bounds by deeds. You cannot suddenly say I don't want to rule China anymore after killing millions in mainland. A westerner that is liberal and look only 1 minute out if a 2 hour movie can never understand.
Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thaiwan must create one union and face the challenges with a team collaborate when CCP create instability around the sea coast and USA must take an initiative roll if CCP shows more aggressive attitude stylish.
Taiwanese people voted freely for their freedom and democracy and we must respect the free vote of the people, this vote is sacred. Free Taiwan.
It is very unfortunate that the people that the Taiwanese get to vote for must first be approved by Washington or the CIA. They then control the decisions made for the people on Taiwan. Go check out the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) for more information.

taiwan is its own country They are a land of freedom creativity and self thought They have chinese, japanese portugese and aboringinal cultures. the chinese civil war brought all the businessmen, artists, teachers over to Taiwan And their Chinese origins have evolved to something new, which is what we see in Taiwan today imagine what would have been lost in the Chinese Revolution war. should definitely visit Taiwan you all will love it
Taiwan could be its own country, but not yet. Just like Hawaii could be its own country, it's nice to have dreams.
@@parker_128 just like western Taiwan...
@@parker_128 Taiwan is already an independent country. China has no jurisdiction over Taiwan.
1. The Constitution practiced in Taiwan states that Taiwan is a part of a country known as China. 2. All countries around the world treat Taiwan as a part of China. 3. All international organisations treat Taiwan as a part of China. 4. The Government in Taipei officially States that they are a part of China. How then is Taiwan it's own country ?
你的意思是你是变种人
To the Chinese, Taiwan has always been foreign or “fan” (番). Ming prevented the Dutch VOC from establishing a trading post in Makong on Penghu, because the Pescadore Islands (Penghu) were the easternmost outpost of Chinese civilization. And Ming suggested Taiwan to the Dutch, precisely because Taiwan was located beyond Ming’s border. Assimilated (熟番, assimilated foreigners) Plain aborigines bought their Chinese names from the Manchu yamen in Tainan. They learned Fujianese and later Cantonese as foreign languages, using the alphabet of their Bible to mark pronunciation. The 90% Chinese population of Taiwan as claimed by the “governing authorities ON Taiwan” on their website is a myth planted by the Chinese KMT during the Chiang dynasty dictatorship. They used their education system, their news media and the entertainment provided through their film industry and television to drill into the Taiwanese psyche the false image of an elite Chinese ancestry. During the 1970, every well-to-do family in Taipei had to brag about a mythical Fujianese ancestor to keep up with the Joneses. In Manchu times, the only Tangren (唐人, as the Chinese identified themselves) who exited Tangshan (唐山, as the Chinese called China) were “shack people” (棚民) and "guest people” (客民, the truth behind the Hakka (客家) hoax) who sold themselves as “piglets” (豬仔, self-deprecatory term) to be able to sail to greener pastures and become indentured labor (華工) in Europe’s colonial possessions. And those certainly avoided Taiwan, partly under Manchu control, partly savage. The laobaixing was not keen on risking his queued head lopped off either by the Manchu yamen on the Manchu-controlled side of the「土牛溝」or by the savages (生番, unassimilated foreigners) beyond that border ditch, just to eke out the same sordid living he was fleeing. The offspring of Manchu era assimilated Plain aborigines form, with the Mountain aborigines, the bulk of Taiwanese population. They are of Austronesian stock with late Chinese admixture. The only Chinese on Taiwan are the “zaitai” (在台, ON Taiwan) offspring of two million 1949 Chinese illegal immigrants who would rather cling to their Chinese identity and nationality than blend into the native population. Why can’t every Chinese ON Taiwan ( (在台🇹🇼人民) pay allegiance to Taiwan like the average Chinese American does toward the USA? Eighty years ago, American useful idiots raped Japan at the cost of abetting Chinese imperialism. Washington fed Japanese Taiwan to Nanjing when the US Navy unloaded Chiang’s Chinese KMT army on Japanese Taiwan. In 1945, Taiwan could look forward to enjoying the fruits of the UN charter. Taiwan was independent country material. China’s mission was to guide Taiwan toward independence as the Chinese Mandate Of Taiwan under the framework of the UN trusteeship system. Qing had lost Taiwan in 1895 and 1945 was not returning Taiwan to China. Chiang Kai-shek knew it. He had signed the UN Charter for China. If Chiang knew it, Mao, who had envisioned Taiwanese independence in a 1937 conversation with Edgar Snow, also knew it. Having received from the communists Stalins order at X’an, Chiang, egged on by Mao on behalf of Stalin, had attacked the Japanese Concession of Shanghai. December 1936 Xi’an caused the Pacific war. Once Japan had surrendered, the UN Charter threatened Chinese territorial ambitions toward Taiwan. The Chinese Nationalists and the Chinese Communists launched into a sequel of the civil war. The issue of Taiwanese independence was lost in the fog of the Chinese civil war. But the Chinese, who love to quote the unsigned Cairo press release, never quote that innocuous clause, “the Three Great Allies ... have no territorial ambition.” China squandered its golden opportunity to shine on the world stage. When Kim Il-sung barged into South-Korea, the Truman administration woke up to the dire consequences of the FDR administration's blunders. But it was too late on the ground. The Chinese occupied Japanese Taiwan on behalf of the allies (UN) coalition led by the “principal occupying power”. In disregard of international law according to the 1949 Fourth Geneva Convention, the Chinese transferred two million of their own on Japanese Taiwan, population 6 million back then. Two million illegal Chinese immigrants overwhelmed six million Japanese Taiwan Komins (皇民). Today, we say “Taiwanese” and “Taiwanese American” while we think “Chinese” and “Chinese American”. Although the US, having given a reluctant nod to its Chinese proxy’s violations of international law, is responsible for having Sinicized Japanese Taiwan, John Foster Dulles, in his capacity as architect of the San Francisco Peace Treaty in the service of the "principal occupying power", prevailed on Japanese PM Shigeru Yoshida not to cede Taiwan to China, to any China. On April 28, 1952, Japanese Taiwan & Penghu was detached from Japan, not from China. Tai-Peng’s international legal status remains undecided to this day. Tai-Peng is a US protectorate and the US -- the SFPT article 23 (a)“principal occupying power” on Taiwan -- is withholding the sovereignty of Taiwan for the future benefit of the native population of Taiwan, the offspring of the Japanese Komins of Japanese Taiwan. Chiang Ching-guo is the first Chinese exile to have said, “I am a Taiwanese.” 40 years later, on the occasion of the last general election, Beijing-born founder of Taiwanese chip-maker U.M.C., Robert Tsao Hsing-cheng (曹興誠), told Chinese KMT stalwarts, “Taiwan's the fatherland now, not China.” The Chinese KMT ON (repeat: ON) Taiwan (TRA terminology) must forget about China or 滾回去祖國, where “祖國" means Chinese Kinmen & Matsu, that Chinese KMT’s fiefdom. The government of the People's Republic of China (PRC) and the “governing authorities ON (repeat: ON) Taiwan” (TRA terminology) both oppose Taiwanese independence since they both believe that Taiwan and mainland China comprise two portions of a single country's territory. The “governing authorities ON (repeat: ON) Taiwan” (TRA terminology) in their constitution maintain their own claim over the entire Chinese territory including Taiwan and recognize the CCP no longer as a rebellious group but as the "mainland authorities”. When the US had a Mutual Defense Treaty. (effective 3 March 1955 - 31 December 1979) with the “governing authorities ON (repeat: ON) Taiwan” (TRA terminology), the US always reminded the latter that they did not enjoy the sovereignty of Taiwan. The United States “takes note” without recognizing the "One China" position of both sides of the Taiwan Strait. U.S. policy did not recognize that “governing authorities ON (repeat: ON) Taiwan” (TRA terminology) enjoys sovereignty over Taiwan. U.S. policy does not recognize the PRC's sovereignty over Taiwan. U.S. policy does not recognize Taiwan as a sovereign country; and U.S. policy considers Taiwan's international legal status as undetermined. Why is Taiwan’s international legal status undetermined? Because the Chinese Communists/Nationalists United Front (共國統一戰線) has been preventing the native population of former Japanese Taiwan from self-determining in accordance with UN Charter-ordained Taiwanese independence. The Atlantic Council, a think tank with ties to US-DOS, has been floating the notion that NATO ought to step up to the plate as regards the Chinese threat. That’s all fine and dandy. However, any meaningful coalition arrayed in defense of Taiwan should be broadened to include the 49 SFPT signatory powers, Japan included. That coalition should be named United Nations 2.0 ((UN 2.0). Japan and the US included, the 49 collectively remember that Japan did not cede Taiwan to any China. Shimonoseki Treaty → San Francisco Peace Treaty → UN Resolution 2758 does not impinge on Taiwan’s undecided international status → Taiwan Relations Act: Neither the peoples of China nor the deluded 23 million who deem themselves the “🇹🇼people ON Taiwan" (在台🇹🇼人民, TRA terminology) can enjoy Taiwan's sovereignty. This is the United States' ironclad position on post-WWII Taiwan. The United States has the final say. 兄弟們,別鬧啦!無論是中國人民還是自錯視為🇹🇼人民的台灣居民都不會享有非華台灣、前日屬台灣和現在美保台灣的主權。 馬關條約 ----> 舊金山和平條約 ----> 2758號決議不涉台灣 ----> 台灣關係法 = 中國人民和自錯視為🇹🇼人民的「在台人民」,都無法享受台灣的主權。推動華獨只有死路一條。這是美國對二戰後台灣的鐵則。美國說了算。
The west wanted to divide the Chinese people. The west is thr most evil people on Earth. Taiwan land belongs to China. Fyi
The last lady comments are totally untrue, and the personal lies. If there is no CCP, I'm sure taiwanese will say they are china

Taiwan is still colonized, even after 1987. ROC has established institutions, and never ended. That is why it is so called settler colonialism.

basically Chinese.
Taiwan still okay, the identity very obvious. 3000km away, Singapore, don’t really have whatever Singapore identity.
The true Taiwanese people are culturally more similar to the Philippines. In fact, these real Taiwanese people speak a similar language to Northern Philippines, they could actually understand some Filipino. The real Taiwanese people have a different culture compared to 95% of the people in Taiwan (Han Chinese).
When West Germany absorbed East Germany, many East Germans had to abandon all their life-long beLiefs. It is not pleasant, but it’s been done before when necessary. There is a movie comedy on how a East German boy tried to keep his mother from finding out the reality of the change in order not to cause her a heart attack. Taiwan might experience some heart attacks if we push to tell the truth, but that’s not a reason to let lies continue to spread. Freedom is not free, and neither is truth. Some sacrifices have to be made eventually to keep this democracy intact.
What kind of beliefs East Germans had different?
