At this point I think we’ll just have to agree to disagree.

I’m aware of the mobilization being ended - this was in part, if not mainly, to allow for additional democratization to occur. The ROC hasn’t renounced a 1-China policy though it has been discussed and even voted on in different ways.

They didn’t renounced the claim only admitted the reality that they didn’t have control of the mainland in order to allow open discussions to move forward ...not mutually exclusive. In a similar manner the PRC did not require mainland passports for those visiting from Taiwan, also not relinquishing their claim that it is part of the PRC.

I get the status quo argument, and I agree that there has been a shift away from hardline policies as the island has further democratized, but the claims of jurisdiction are technically still in place. The ROC constitution still applies to the mainland per the document.

Appreciate the cordial discussion.

“this point I think we’ll just have to agree to disagree.”

I don’t understand what you disagree with.

“The ROC hasn’t renounced a 1-China policy...”

How can asking to join the UN and be in the UN along with China not be renouncing one China policy?
