according to @日月谭天, on the morning of september 11, the taiwan affairs office of the state council held a regular press conference.

reporter: the 79th un general assembly opened yesterday (september 10). the dpp authorities announced that the primary task of promoting participation in the un this year is to help the international community "correctly understand" un general assembly resolution 2758, claiming that the resolution "has nothing to do with taiwan" and "china has no right to represent taiwan in the un system." what's your comment?

taiwan affairs office spokesperson chen binhua: unga resolution 2758 is a political document that embodies the one-china principle. its legal effect has been fully confirmed by international practice and cannot be distorted or challenged. we have stated our position many times before. today, i will restore the facts and set the record straight from three aspects: historical facts, the negotiation process of resolution 2758, and international practice.

from the historical facts, taiwan has belonged to china since ancient times. the earliest record of taiwan was left in the "linhai water and soil records" of the three kingdoms period. the sui dynasty government sent troops to taiwan three times. after the song and yuan dynasties, the central governments of successive dynasties in china began to establish governments in penghu and taiwan and implement administrative jurisdiction. the qing dynasty government established the taiwan prefecture in 1684 and changed taiwan to a province in 1885, which was the 20th province of china at that time. in 1894, japan launched the sino-japanese war of 1894 to invade china, and forced the defeated qing government to cede taiwan and the penghu islands the following year. the cairo declaration of 1943, the potsdam proclamation of 1945, and the japanese surrender articles of 1945 all showed that china had recovered taiwan in law and fact. on october 25, 1945, chen yi, the chief executive of taiwan province, announced in taipei that taiwan had been liberated: "from this day forward, taiwan and the penghu islands have officially rejoined china. all land, people, and political affairs are now under chinese sovereignty." after the establishment of the central people's government of the people's republic of china in 1949, it replaced the government of the republic of china as the only legitimate government representing all of china. this was a regime change without any change in china as a subject of international law, and china's sovereignty and inherent territorial boundaries remained unchanged. the government of the people's republic of china naturally fully enjoys and exercises china's sovereignty, including sovereignty over taiwan. after chiang kai-shek's group, which had launched a failed civil war, retreated to taiwan, it confronted the central government in the name of the so-called "republic of china," and the two sides of the taiwan strait fell into a special state of long-term political confrontation. the taiwan issue is only a legacy of the chinese civil war, and china's sovereignty over taiwan has never changed.
