UN General Assembly
1963

49. China is a founder country of the United Nations and a permanent member of the Security Council; it accounts for a quarter of the world's population. Without China the United Nations is neither universal nor effective. There is only one China in the world, one and indivisible: the People's Republic of China; and its Government is the only government which represents China and is competent to undertake or carryout commitments on China's behalf. It is neither just nor worthy that the United Nations should refuse the People's Republic of China its lawful place in this Organization because that is the will of the United States of America. We all know that the United States spared neither funds nor weapons to prevent the triumph of the socialist revolution in China. It follows a hostile policy towards the new China; it has occupied Taiwan and other Chinese islands; it is actively preparing aggression against China and spreading the absurd theory of the "two Chinas", which is part of its plot to detach and establish permanent dominion over Taiwan. All attempts to prevent the forward march of the People's Republic of China have failed and will always fail. The liberation of Taiwan and the other Chinese islands occupied by the United States is a lawful right of the People's Republic of China.
