Does the Republic of China have a place in the UN?
The Republic of China, which has largely relinquished its claim to mainland China, has continued to fight for a place in the United Nations. Over the years, it has applied to the U.N. under the name “The Republic of China (Taiwan)” and “The Republic of China on Taiwan,” but the applications have been denied.
Why did China not have a seat in the UN Security Council?
They wanted to prevent another Communist government from gaining a place in the Security Council. By 1971, however, the People’s Republic had gained enough international support for the U.N. General Assembly to pass the resolution declaring that it, and not the R.O.C., was the rightful representative of China.
What happened to the Republic of China?
However, in 1949, the R.O.C. government was expelled from the mainland by the Communist Party, the founders of the People’s Republic of China. Though the R.O.C. only continued to control the island of Taiwan after its expulsion from the mainland, it still considered itself the one true government of China.
Should Taiwan Authority be allowed to join the UN?
Please allow “Taiwan Authority” to join UN, at least as an observer (like South Korea from 1949 to 1991). It saddened me deeply these 23-million people are denied again and again entry to the UN. Taiwan has its own set of government, the military, laws and the judiciary court – all separate and completely different from China.
