China's Foreign Ministry: Taiwan Ineligible to Join UN
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Taiwan as a province of China is ineligible for the United Nations membership, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said on Tuesday.
Zhao made the remarks when answering a media query after some politicians in Taiwan challenged the United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758, claiming that the resolution didn't decide the representation of the island at the UN, CGTN reported.
Zhao slammed this claim as "utterly unjustifiable," adding that the UN and its vast member states recognize the fact that there is only one China in the world, Taiwan is an inalienable part of the Chinese territory, and China's exercise of sovereignty over the island.
