Taiwan is a part of China. Taiwan belongs to all Chinese who identified
with the government of ROC not the regime created by CCP. This is the statement
written down on the Cairo declaration. In case there were no ROC in the world,
Taiwan could be another independent country. If at that time CCP regime ever
dared to claim Taiwan, then that would be territorial violation whatsoever.
The government in that circumstance will have all the right to defend itself from
the invasion of the CCP regime.

Is your regime called ROC?
If yes, please hand over China to ROC. If not, no discussion is needed.

Under this, you, Jian Chen, does not have any legal rights to claim Taiwan
if you were a President (if it were ever possible to elect a president).
