Foreign Policy Research Institute A Nation Must Think Before it Acts The Uses and Abuses of the UN’s “China Resolution”: Beijing’s Interpretation and Taiwan’s International Status

The Uses and Abuses of the UN’s “China Resolution”: Beijing’s Interpretation and Taiwan’s International Status

September 26, 2022 | 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm | Asia Program

About the Event

The People’s Republic of China asserts that UN General Assembly Resolution 2758—which gave Beijing the “Chinese seat” at the United Nations—adopts the PRC’s “One China Principle” and that member states thereby accepted that Taiwan is a part of the PRC.  With the annual UN General Assembly session under way and with China having issued an August 2022 “White Paper” on Taiwan issues, FPRI’s Asia Program takes up these issues in an online conversation with Bonnie S. Glaser, the Director of the Asia Program at the German Marshall Fund of the United States; Jessica Drun, a Nonresident Fellow with the Atlantic Council’s Global China Hub; and Jacques deLisle, the Director of the Asia Program at FPRI and Stephen A. Cozen Professor of Law and professor of political science at the University of Pennsylvania.
