Bill Summary
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives regarding United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758 (XXVI) and the harmful conflation of China's "One China Principle" and the United States' "One China Policy".
AI Summary
This resolution addresses the misinterpretation and misuse of United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758 by the People's Republic of China (PRC), which originally addressed representation of China at the UN in 1971. The resolution clarifies that Resolution 2758 was not intended to define Taiwan's political status, but the PRC has since weaponized it to claim sovereignty over Taiwan. The House of Representatives reaffirms the United States' "one China policy," which acknowledges the PRC's position but does not endorse its claim to control Taiwan, and emphasizes that this policy differs from China's "One China Principle." The resolution opposes China's efforts to isolate Taiwan internationally, supports Taiwan's participation in global organizations, recognizes Taiwan as a valuable international partner, and encourages other countries to distinguish their policies from China's narrative. Specifically, it calls for supporting Taiwan's diplomatic relationships, opposing coercive tactics by the PRC, ensuring Taiwan passport holders can access UN facilities, and working to counter China's false claims about Resolution 2758 and Taiwan's status.
