Hello from Taiwan, while your heart’s in the right place this meme actually plays into China’s hands as it fits their one-china narrative. Taiwan considers itself an independent nation and hopes the wider international community will begin treating it as such.
Last time I heard you still officially maintain your claims to mainland China, Mongolia and part of Russia and India.
Also, I wouldnt say his heart is in the right place. PRC is the direct result of the faliure of the KMT junta and its widespread terror.
Either “China” only ever hurt mainland. Taiwan is a democracy that circumstantially became viable and manageable (even then, it took decades) on an island with the population of 20 million people.
I agree with your sentiment that Taiwan is probably better off by itself. Nobody actually knows how to manage mainland properly.
Their de facto stance is that the Taiwanese government is sovereign over the island, but they formally accept that the PRC is the government of China.
It’s a careful line between ensuring the continued de facto independence of their key ally, without inducing the inevitable temper tantrum from China of formally treating them as independent.
Taiwan is not part of China
China is part of Taiwan.
Or more precisely, PRC is rebelled provinces of China.
West Taiwan

I don’t get it. What’s wrong with my heart?
Nice try, Xi!
Not even Taiwan says that though. ;)
Not according to the US state department.
The US “acknowledges China’s position” on Taiwan, but carefully avoids an explicit official stance on Taiwanese sovereignty.
They don’t acknowledge Taiwan “sovereignty” because they support the claim that the legitimate government of all of China is the one in Taiwan.
No, they do not.
Their de facto stance is that the Taiwanese government is sovereign over the island, but they formally accept that the PRC is the government of China.

I wonder if the US also “acknowledges UKs position” on the Falklands or straight up supports them because they’re in bed together
Coincidently, Taiwan position is the same.
