After today's regular press conference at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a reporter asked: 53 years ago today, the United Nations General Assembly passed resolution 2758, restoring the People's Republic of China's legal seat in the United Nations. For some time now, some people in the world have been spreading remarks such as “General Assembly resolution 2758 did not resolve Taiwan's status” and supported Taiwan's “meaningful participation in United Nations activities.” What comments does the speaker have on this? Lin Jian said that on October 25, 1971, the 26th United Nations General Assembly passed resolution 2758 by an overwhelming majority, deciding to restore all rights of the People's Republic of China at the United Nations, recognize that representatives of the People's Republic of China's government are the sole legal representatives of China at the United Nations, and immediately expel representatives of the Taiwan authorities from the United Nations and all agencies affiliated with it. This resolution completely resolved the issue of the representation of all China, including Taiwan, in the United Nations. It is clear that there are no “two Chinas” or “one China, one Taiwan.” As an inalienable part of China's territory, Taiwan has no basis, reason or right to participate in the United Nations or other international organizations that only a sovereign country can participate in. There is no grey area, no room for blurring when it comes to this principle. In recent years, some Western forces have maliciously misinterpreted General Assembly resolution 2758, spread misconceptions such as “General Assembly resolution 2758 did not resolve Taiwan's status,” condoned and supported “Taiwan independence” separatist activities, which had a serious negative impact on the peace and stability of the Taiwan Straits. What I want to emphasize once again is that any attempt to deny the one-China principle and distort the authority and effectiveness of General Assembly resolution 2758 is a reversal of history, a challenge to the post-World War II international order, and is bound to fail. China is bound to be unified, and it will eventually be unified. This is a general historical trend that no one or force can stop.
