The fact is that both US and Japan do not recognize Taiwan as a country and no offiical foreign relationship with so called Taiwan government. It is a very complicated issue but basic facts are quite clear. US is using Taiwan as a tool for maintaining its influence in APAC. The key is US vs China, not Japan , or Taiwan itself.
Actually, the US doesn't use Taiwan to maintain influence in APAC... it uses Taiwan to demonise China and drive paranoia about China in its citizens for domestic political gains.
nah, Taiwan is already independent. Taiwan is south Korea and China is north Korea, one cry's like baby and the other chills out with a bunch of rich nations.
“Japan lost the war to China’s previous government, not to the current government?” Wow that is the most dangerous comment I have heard. Imagine if Germany said it, what would be the reactions among European countries including Russia. lol
Stupid Japanese commentator. Japan lost the war. The country accepted the defeat unconditionally. That is an unbreakable vow. Thanks to the two nuclear bombs.
Because by promoting this logic the Japanese can have a basis to free themselves from all the restrictions that are the consequences of losing WW2 and normalise.
I just want to point out two facts: 1. The Taiwan everyone is referring to here has a legal name called the Republic of China (ROC) 2. The constitution of ROC states that ROC is the rightful government of the entirety of China including Mainland China. And in “Act Governing Relations between the People of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area” it stated many times “Prior to the unification of our country…”
Quote " ROC is the rightful government of the entirety of China including Mainland China". What a beautiful dream when the world at large does not recognize Taiwan as a country!
And the idea has been shot down by UN and US long time ago. The world only recognize PRC not ROC. Go to a proper school will help, and don’t go to the Twain’s propaganda school will definitely help.
@@laminpapan2650 NoNoNo, You dont understand . Its a form of "There is only one China in the world." That makes ROC and PRC 's relationship a unfinished civil war.Its not Taiwan is dreaming . Cai and Lai dreaming to change their constitution to get rid of this line . But that means declar war on China.😅
That is the status quo though, haven't seen any PRC police, currency, politician, or any sort of official presence in Taiwan. He didn't proclaim independence, as politicians have said before them, the ROC (Taiwan) is already independent, just in the same way South Korea is independent from North Korea.
That Japanese is a dangerous man, Japan lost to the previous government of China in WW2, not the current government. This means if a country's government changed, does the country tear all legal binding documents to pieces? Imagine Germany's government not accepting the 1945 surrender, calling it the 'previous' government agreement. The current government has never signed those documents. Stupidity to the max.
A treaty is nothing but a written agreement between parties. If one of the parties ceases to exist the treaty becomes void, that's perfectly reasonable and legal. I'm certainly no expert, but I think in this case the treaty of Taipei was signed between Japan and the ROC, and was terminated already in 1972 when Japan established relations with the PRC.
@@drapedblack7517 indeed my friend you are not an expert. Japan now officially recognizes only one China and Taiwan is part of China. the Japanese panelist, if he has the dignity and decency to try to prove his point, he can always try to ask his government to issue official statement recognizing Taiwan as an independent state and see how does that go. actually I'm curious, in fact intrigued, to see how far Japanese right wing would go to bring another war in Asia
@@drapedblack7517 You are indeed not an expert and you are wrong. The Victor Gao was the only one talking in terms of international law - research it if you doubt this random person on the internet. It's really more than distasteful for Japan to be involving itself in this, any historical awareness of WW2 makes this patently obvious. SMFH
Imagine being upset about someone with the capacity of providing higher quality of self determination and life for his family while also uplifting the desire for it in his nation.
1) In 1894, Japan invaded China and Korea, the Qing govt was defeated and signed the [Treaty of Shimonoseki] to cede Taiwan Island to Japan. 2) During the WW2, at the Cairo Conference held in 1943, China asked the transfer of Taiwan's sovereignty back to China after the war. This content was included in the [Cairo Declaration] and later reiterated in the [Potsdam Proclamation] that it should be implemented. 3) In 14 Aug & 2 Sept 1945, the Emperor and govt of Japan issued the [End War Edict] and [Japanese Instrument of Surrender], Japan surrendered and accepted the [Potsdam Proclamation]. Japanese troops in Taiwan surrendered to KMT General CKS and Taiwan re-entered the territory of the Republic of China (ROC). 4) Soon after that China civil war broke out in between KMT and CCP, the KMT was defeated and fled to Taiwan. However, due to US intervention, the CCP without strong navy at that time has no ability to unify Taiwan. The CCP then established the People's Republic of China (PRC) in 1949. The civil war continues. 5) In 1971, UN Resolution No. 2758 ruled that the PRC had obtained the representation rights and all legal rights originally owned by the ROC in the UN. That means the PRC is China’s only legal govt under international law and is recognized by 181 countries around the world, including the USA. "The USA recognizes the Government of the PRC as the sole legal Government of China." "The USA acknowledges the Chinese position that there is but one China and Taiwan is part of China." Joint Cummunique on the Establishment of Diplomatic relations between the PRC and the USA in 1979. Please refer to President Jimmy Carter's Speech on Relations with China. 6) Therefore, according to international law, international reality, and the wishes of the 1.4 billion Chinese people, Taiwan should return to PRC and the PRC have every rights to protect it's sovereign integrity.
Point number 2 is not without controversy. The US claims Taiwan wasn't formally returned, the ROC just fled to Taiwan leading to the status quo. China's 1.4 billion people, as non-taiwanese citizens, do not have a say in Taiwan's government, just in the same way they cannot vote in US presidential elections. By your logic India could just vote to annex china and china would just have to roll over and accept it, since India has more people than China.
Acknowledment is not an agreement. Taiwan is not part of Communist China, the PRC. The Civil War was never concluded, only ended. You lost the last time you tried to take it, and the U.S. helped Taiwan fend off the invasion. Apparently, you are planning to try your luck again. You will lose again, and badly.
In no way the same thing! Anyway, there were no Donetsk & Luhansk separatists at least only a minority in the areas, and mainly because they were paid off by russia. The soldiers have been proven to mainly be russian soldiers who removed their insignias and Putin already acknowledged they did in Crimea! A clear breach of the UN charters and international law! Taiwan on the other hand has never been part of the PRC, and the population has no interest in being part of the PRC. They have their own money, economy, military and justice system. They got a fairly elected President, something the PRC has never had!
Yep it is but Taiwan should be independent and so should the Russians in their regions, US hypocrisy is both unbearable and laughable at times but what Taiwan has is worth protecting look up what Communist China did to the Uighurs with "re-education camps", nobody would want that. If the people want freedom in Tibet, East Turkestan and Taiwan then they should have it especially from Communists.
Ask the Tibetans, Uighurs how they feel about your point ☝️ defacto occupied territories. Let the Taiwanese decide their own faith it's what it's about, any person supporting war is a uneducated fool and when push comes to shove those same fools run and cry! Signed by 4 year war vet!
Remember! Taiwan is Republic of China which was founded in 1911. PRC was renegaded from ROC, founded in 1949. Victor needs read the history carefully, so do you.
@@johnyan836 The civil war of China since 1945 has not been ended until today. And the pursuit of independence made the current Taiwan regime lose their legitimacy (if they had any) when they betrayed Mr Sun Yat-Sen's goal of building a unified and strong China.
Never mind the FACT that the Chinese Communist Government has NEVER in its history ruled or controlled Taiwan! Maybe you should learn history and little things called "FACTS".
i don't know what's that japanese guy doing here.... his country lost the war and returned the occupied lands so there's nothing to do with his country
@@fatdoi003 actually China and Japan are in a territorial dispute over the senkaku islands which is very close to Taiwan. Just like the guy from said is a few kilometers from their land and a perfect opportunity for China to claim the islands while there warships attempt to take Taiwan. Japan would be foolish to sit by idly why China tries to take Taiwan. They bully the Philippines in their own seas. It makes sense to me why they would want to stop this bully in their tracks.
Taiwan is NOT a country, the UN doesn’t recognise Taiwan as a country nor Japan nor the US, japan and the US do not have embassy in Taiwan but they do in Beijing, this fact tells loudly that Japan and the US officially recognised Taiwan as part of China, period. China’s military action in Taiwan is not an “invasion” because Taiwan is the land part of China. The speaker “professor” from Taipei is trying to change the fact and his argument is so generic and lame. “Be prepared” Victor Gao said, that’s not a bluff.
China's economy would be devastated, and it's military is under major corruptions scandals which will take years to recover, and at best, china might win Taiwanese territory but lost the entire economy of the county and go into the biggest recession in this century... don't think it'll happen anytime soon
Then why does China allow US servicemen to be stationed in Taiwan if it is PRC territory? And why do they tell Taiwan not to buy missiles from the US, but they do anyway and the PRC do nothing about it. It's a country in every way that matters.
Your statement is completely wrong as CCP never ruled and controled Taiwan regardless UN recognizes Taiwan as a country or not. Invasion is a invasion.
@@hung-yupan1599 it’s not about who rules Taiwan, it’s about the ownership of the LAND of Taiwan, the UN and other 180 countries around the world recognised that the land of Taiwan belongs to PRC, if some people don’t agree they are free to leave the land forever and should not come back.

It is sad to see the corrupting influence of foreign propaganda on the impressionable young minds in Taiwan. The young people in Taiwan largely don't think they are Chinese anymore. That sure appears to be cultural genocide to me.

Applause to Victor Gao for his calm and firm statement on Taiwan issue. The unification of Taiwan has been there for 75 years after china civil war not a new one. Key role of Taiwan is between China and US, not Taiwan nor Japan which are just vassals of US. Anchor should invite someone from US to speak on the matter.
The Chinese are wasting their time. Why not recognise Puerto Rico and Hawaii and start dealing with them directly without any consultation with Washington.
@jamesmiller2735 pure stupidity, sure if they declared their independence or said they had never been part of the US, you could have point, but they haven't!

Not only was Taniguchi's deliberate misinterpretation of the Japanese unconditional surrender was only to the then ruling ROC but not the PRC foolish, it is also extremely dangerous. This is how wars get started, Blatant denial of a signed international document.

Japan lost in WWII, had to return Taiwan to China. They should not have any say on this subject. I don't know why this Japanese guy was invited here. This should be just between Mainland and Taiwan!
Because China is eyeballing the Senkaku islands as well like true imperialists not forgetting the SCS, how many more land is Chinese in the neighborhood? Is Vietnam, Phillipines, Japan next on the menu they obviously are aren't they!
@Torcasolta Do u know ROC(Taiwan) has always been a claimant party of Diaoyu Tai (senkaku island) like PRC does since Japan lost WWII? The Cairo Declaration issued by China, the United States and the United Kingdom on December 1, 1943 stated that it was the purpose of the three countries that all the territories Japan had stolen from China, such as Diaoyu island(senkaku island), Northeast China, Taiwan and the Penghu Islands, should be restored to China. As a defeated country of WWII, Japan does NOT have an ounce of legitimacy to claim any territory against China, period.
@Torcasolta Chinas territory claim in SCS is a direct counteroffensive against the current de facto imperialist Us of A's continuous militarization of other claimant states in SCS. U honestly believe China is gonna sit and watch US armed stooges i.e phillipine occupying all the strategic islands at the doorstep of southern coast of China and threatening China's maritime safety? Back in 2012, Phillipines reckless arrest of Chinese fishermen in the area just gave China a perfect excuse to completely change the game in SCS, i guess u can only blame the Filipinos for being so strategically STUP1D lol
@@johnyan836 No, but the interests Russia has in Ukraine are the same that China has in Taiwan. There are economic and strategic interests. A neutral Ukraine or a vassal is a strategic interest for Russia, that's why there's a war. It was a bulwark against NATO with its own economic reserves. Taiwan is purely a strategic interest. If Taiwan secedes from China, it will become an unsinkable aircraft carrier for the United States. China cannot under any circumstance allow that to happen. Very rarely do Chinese government mouthpieces use aggressive or incendiary language. Mr. Gao's threat isn't a bluff, China is deadly serious about reunification, this is why he asked what interest does the US have in sending its men and women to die, because China will fire on us also. That escalation could lead to WWIII and we know how that ends.
@@Heeroyui752 For 75 years, PR China has never ruled Taiwan for a single day, single hour, single minute. Taiwan is the core interest of the US and Taiwan was liberated from the hands of Japan. China did not fire a single shot in WWII Pacific War Zone.
Goodness me, as a Chinese by blood, I am bewildered to see this heated argument between a representative from Taiwan, a representative from Beijing, and a scholar if he isn't a politician from Tokyo. From a living soul in Chinese culture and values, I dislike any belligerent behavior. I don't like intimidating language used in these arguments either. However, the confrontation today between the government in the Mainland and across the strait is so hot that any misdemeanor of either party will trigger a war (as described "The Point of No Return"). Please don't take his word lightly - he speaks on the internet media under the blessing of Beijing, therefore, his words are those of the Zhongnanhai, authoritative, and certainly carrying a substantial amount of credibility in them. So when he said President Lai will get what he want (implying he deserved it) with his provocative statements on his inauguration, he should expect the consequences, militarily, not economically or politically, because to the ruling party of China, Mr.Lai has already crossed the "Redline" , hence the military drills are considered "military punishment maneuvers". Whether or not such hostile actions will bear fruit either further stimulating the DDP in Taiwan to embark another round of anti China movement such as rallying people on the streets in support of independence that directly inflicts military actions from the Mainland, or Taiwan to standup directly to these so called punishments by countering the drills - very dangerous as I can see now, never like before - the tone today is explosive!!! Sorry to comment on your Japanese guest speaker. You invited the wrong person to represent Japan in this debate. He has no place in this argument. Japan's national interests with Taiwan and China is some politics of different generations of their politicians. No point to go back to any specific documents. Either you are with Taiwan or you are against China in this conflict. Japan is quietly preparing for war but not openly saying they will participate. So by asking your Japanese guest those ambiguous questions did not throw any light in clearing the question you tried to get some crystal clear answers. His responses were basically irrelevant to this current situation. Japan, to me, remained to be someone watching the game and the moment to seize the spoils.
The more you talk, the more you will be guilty. If china respect japan and philippines, for sure taiwan and china could settle their internal issues. China bullying philippines was their greatest mistakes, philippines is weak alone but has stronger Back-up. In conclusion, war to philippines is like going to war against the world.
Including South Korea, they can call themselves sovereign countries, but infact they are just military colonies of the US. Have been since the end of the second world war.
These discussions are unfortunately focused on political arguments rather than the reality on the ground. The facts are 1. Most Taiwanees don't want to war nor unification with the mainland China. They prefer the status quo. 2. Legally speaking, Taiwan and the mainland China are still in civil war status since the national government lost a civil war and fled to Taiwan in 1949. 3. China's red line is that if Taiwan declares independence then millitary actions will be taken. However China still wants so called peaceful reunification and sees millitary takeover as a last option. Chinese president Xi recently said that as long as both sides can agree that they belong to the same Chinese race, everything is negotiable. 4. Present Lai's auguration speech is provocative and pushes for independence in the eyes of the mainland Chinese government. 5. The Chinese government was shocked by president Lai's speech and started millitary drill to intimidate the Taiwan government. Social media platforms in China are boilling and put a lot of pressues on the government to take action. I think that the provocation from the Taiwan president is unwise and dangerous. The best solution is to keep the status quo and keep political statements vague which both sides can tolerate. It does not benefit either side to start a war, especially they belongs to the same race.
hey there!so i assure u basically suggesting tw should keep silence and maybe submit to china at least in rhetoric-wise?i'm afraid u just can't deem china a quite logical and rational player and understand it too simple---ask yourself,do u genuinely believe beijing could simplely allow status quo if president lai cringe and flattering beijing in the inauguration speech (instead of just insisting and reiterating tw's consistent position as he has done)?one fact:china will retake tw no matter what,so cringe and cringe and cringe just won't work.glad to hear from u
@@miguelmaylee You mean that your option is to evoke a war? The fact is that even Taiwan’s constitution claims that it governs the whole China, not Taiwan only. Although China wants to takeover Taiwan eventually (no leader can give up Taiwan without being engulfed by Chinese people), it claims that is would do it peacefully if possible. I believe this is genuine as the military option is too expensive and dangerous. Taiwan people understand that. In the last Chinese military drill encircling Taiwan, a lot of Taiwanese took Tourist boats to site-seeing the Chinese fleets for fun. Can you believe after the drill starts this time, the headline of Taiwan newspapers is still some news of a Japanese pop star? My point is that if there is a possibility of peace, all sites should make efforts to avoid war. No one knows what will happen in the future. After the Taiwan new president Lai won the election, Chinese president Xi’s position has been mild and said as long as both sides agree that they belong to the same race, everything is negotiable. There is no sign of an imminent invasion. Before the Taiwan new president inauguration speech, all signs, including a leaked draft, showed that it would be a mild speech that both sides can accept. But the actual speech said Taiwan and China are two separate countries that are not affiliated with each other. This is very near to declare independence, which is the red line for the mainland China. China has a law that requires the government to start a war if that happens. I think the new Taiwan’s president’s action is neither wise nor responsible. It also put Taiwan in immediate dangers unnecessarily.

Huge numbers of casualties.. the wqr will be huge more than WWII, WWII will be a joke compared to this war, the world will risk all what humans reach in technology and science..
These are all good questions. It is a serious question, it could result in a full world war. No one would use nuclear weapons because they understand we would all die, but yes I think it could result in a process that escalates to a conflict where China is being attacked inside it’s territory to destroy its rockets and neutralize its capacity to attack Taiwan.

"Taiwan is part of China." Even if it were, it would be part of the Republic of China, not the People's Republic of China. The People's Republic of China has never ruled Taiwan. Taiwan belongs to the Republic of China. The People's Republic of China and the Republic of China are two separate independent countries. Mao Zedong changed the country's name to the People's Republic of China and abandoned the Republic of China. This act by the Chinese Communist Party is factually a declaration of independence, China declared independence from Taiwan in 1949. It would be like if the USA after declaring independence from the UK, the USA claims the UK is part of the USA. "Don't you dare declare independence UK!" said the USA.

According to the CCP they haven't made a single mistake in all of their history. They are a bunch of clowns that cause all of the world's problems.

Why one of panalists is from Japan, as it is very sensitive that Japan colonized Taiwan before WWII, and occupied Taiwan from China duirng Qing Dynasty. Much better if a panalist can be from US. China-US-Taiwan is the core about this topic.
Liars from Japan and some people from Taiwan always emphasize the world ACKNOWLEDGE, in the ONE CHINA POLICY, which has several meanings. Acknowledge also means recognize.
exactly if I acknowledge something that means I don't dispute it. And it is folly to say they don't recognize it but agree to only have informal ties with the Taiwan government.
