By analogy, for the same reason we never declared independence from... France!
We were never ruled by France and so never declared independence.
Taiwan, literally, cannot declare independence from an illegitimate regime in Beijing that it was never, ever subject to, period.
How is that hard for you to grasp?
Kevmo: "***The UN and the US would disagree with you. It is categorized as a renegade province."
I can't speak for the UN, but there's certainly nothing in US law or policy which identifies Taiwan as a renegade province of the Chi-Coms!
Kevmo: "***Take that up with the UN.
Send your forces to die on that hill."
No need to attack the Chi-Coms, so long as they stay out of Taiwan.
If they invade Taiwan, it will be a major event and you personally will not escape the negative consequences -- count on that.
Kevmo: "***Wrong.
China is not only a UN state [Taiwan isn’t] but they are one of the 5 permanent members of the Security Council.
As usual you don’t know what you are talking about."
Wrong, as you know perfectly well, the UN is a totally corrupt organization with no legitimacy itself beyond a debating society.
Dictatorships like the Chi-Coms rule the UN and make it a farcical image of what its founders intended.
So you can't appeal to the UN to claim the Chi-Coms are legit, it would be like appealing to the World Health Organization for information on Covid-19 origins!
Kevmo: "***We are talking about the DEFINITION of a STATE.
By the very DEFINITION, it would encompass OTHER STATES.
Surely, even YOU can’t be this stupid."
Sorry, FRiend, but you not actually talking about anything, only babbling a lot of nonsense.
You really should go back and rethink everything you're hoping to say here.
More babblin’ bullshiite from the sociopath.
