A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate regarding United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758 (XXVI) and the harmful conflation of China's "One China Principle" and the United States'"One China Policy".

This Senate resolution (SRES 86) expresses the Senate's official position on a longstanding diplomatic issue. It clarifies that United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758 (1971), which determined China's UN seat representation, does not endorse China's "One China Principle" (claiming Taiwan is part of China) or address Taiwan's political status. The resolution reaffirms the U.S. "One China Policy" does not accept China's sovereignty claim over Taiwan and opposes China's misuse of Resolution 2758 to isolate Taiwan from international organizations like the WHO or UN agencies. It specifically supports Taiwan's meaningful participation in international forums and opposes China's coercion of other nations to sever ties with Taiwan. The resolution is non-binding but aims to correct factual misrepresentations used to limit Taiwan's global engagement.
