Taiwan never declared "independence". They didn't had to, Taiwan never was a part of the PRC.

You should keep your B/S to spreading opinions (hey anybody is entitled to them) rather than getting caught in making up facts.

Trumpesk.

Check your facts, BP and check them carefully.

Read about the Cairo Conference during WW2 and what was declared about Taiwan and China.

And before you invalidate that Conference & the declarations from that Conference, do some more research and see what happened after the conference.

You write a lot of crap most of the time - not surprising as you are so indoctrinated in the one sided Western narrative about all things bad & evil about China and all things good & moral about the West.

Luckily, most of us actually have a balanced vierw of the world despite living in the West.

I said Taiwan never declared independence from the PRC, and they never did. PRC exists only since 1949 (proclamation by Mao). Quite irrelevant what happened before, isn't it? Nobody can declare independence from a state which does not yet exist.

If you would have even a shred of understanding of the Chinese history, you would know that Taiwan was only for a short part of its history occupied by some Chinese dynasties - from 1683 to 1895. So yes, China was for some centuries a pretty brutal colonial power in Taiwan. Taiwanese people don't forget that.

After 1895 Taiwan belonged to Japan. The Republic of China (not PRC) - or better, what was left of it after fleeing form the communists, took control of Taiwan following the surrender of Japan in 1945.

There was never even an opportunity for Taiwan to declare independence from the PRC, they never had anything to do with Taiwan (apart from sheltering their enemies).

It is amazing - you don't even know the most basic facts of Chinese history and try to tell us that you are a Chinese Expert, but hey, this must be as true as all the other non sense your are spreading.

I guess you name de plume was always a joke, never seen a balanced post from you, but your knowledge of basic facts seems to drop as well. How low can you go, balance?

Don't waste too much of your time debating with BP, warthog - he answers from the one-eyed indoctrinated foreign policy perspective of the US which we know is controlled by the arms & weapons industry.
