    No. That is the Republic of China which is who the Potsdam Declaration was signed with.

        It states that Taiwan is part of the Republic of China. Chiang Kai-shek signed it, not Mao. You can’t just revise history the way you see fit. Communist states are pretty big on that admittedly.

        Guess where the Republic of China is.

          It states that US has a one China policy and the government of China happens to be PRC as recognized by the UN and practically every nation on earth. If you still can’t understand this basic fact what else is there to tell you.

            Are we looking at the same Potsdam Declaration from 1945? Nowhere does it mention a one China policy. It does reference the Cairo Declaration but that also did not talk about a one China policy. That one started that Japan needs to give back the territories it took from the Republic of China including Manchuria and Taiwan. I guess Manchuria should be under control of the Republic of China instead of the People’s Republic of China.

              One China policy is an internal US policy, and acknowledgement that Taiwan is part of China. In terms of international law, the only thing that matters is the fact that UN recognizes Taiwan being part of China. You keep on doing your mental gymnastics though.

                Then why even mention the Potsdam Declaration as if that had anything to do with your point? You made multiple claims about it that simply don’t exist.

                  Because that was the original basis for the relationship between the west and China. I’m not sure what claims you think I made that don’t exist.

                    It has zilch to do with any sort of one China policy. You made a link that is not there. The Potsdam Declaration does not even deal with the Allies’ relationship with the Republic of China. It simply states that Japan will surrender and retreat from the territories they invaded. Please point out what lines in either the Potsdam Declaration or the Cairo Declaration that have anything to do with the Allies’ relationship with the Republic of China. Both deal with the Allies’ relationship and demands from Japan at the time.
