    While the People's Republic of China claimed in the late 1950s that Shanghai had regained its importance as a leading seaport, this was not borne out by observations of foreign travelers nor by official shipping statistics.

    I disagreed completely—and still do—with President Nixon's initiative to "normalize" relations with the People's Republic of China. The American people—against the will of the majority, if the polls are correct—have been forced to go along with the Carter administration's decision to repudiate our mutual defense treaty with the free Chinese regime on Taiwan []

    Why was the communique completely silent on U.S. relations with the Republic of China? I asked. Only the previous October the U.S. Government had taken the position in the United Nations that there was one China but two governments. Yet in the Shanghai Communique the Republic of China was reduced to a mere island, Taiwan. "Don't you people also maintain there is but one China?" Rogers retorted. Yes, I asserted; that was because the Government of the Republic of China, having been elected by the Chinese people as a whole in accordance with our constitution, was the only legitimate government of our country. The so-called People's Republic of China was nothing but a rebel regime.

    Politically, China proper (where the core of Han culture and settlement began in the middle of the Yellow River valley) and frontier areas of China were brought together under the Qing dynasty, mostly during the 18th century. Incursions by earlier dynasties into Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and southern Manchuria did occur, but were later reversed. It is this latest process of expansion that accounts for the enormous size of the People's Republic of China today.

  • 2022, “September 25, 2022”, in Mainland Affairs Council[7], archived from the original on 04 March 2023, Chronology:
    Wang Yi blatantly intimidates the world at the UNGA. He is a cheat and bully on the global stage in fundamental violation of the facts. Democratic countries should clearly recognize and unify against the challenge of authoritarian intervention. The Republic of China is a sovereign state. Taiwan has never been part of the People's Republic of China in historical fact, international law, or reality.
