Opposing China’s Misuse of UN Resolution 2758
This Senate resolution from West Virginia opposes the People's Republic of China's interpretation of UN Resolution 2758 and supports Taiwan's participation in international organizations. The bill clarifies that the 1971 UN resolution only addressed which government represents China at the UN, not Taiwan's political status or sovereignty, and criticizes China for using the resolution to justify its "One China" claims. It calls on the UN to stop using Resolution 2758 to deny Taiwan access to UN institutions and events, while reaffirming the U.S. policy of not taking a position on Taiwan's sovereignty and supporting peaceful resolution of cross-strait issues. The resolution also encourages Taiwan's continued engagement in international organizations where statehood is not required and directs the Senate Clerk to send the document to West Virginia's congressional delegation.
