UN Resolution 2758 Turns 50: Implications for Taiwan

On October 25, 1971, the United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution 2758, “Restoration of the lawful rights of the People's Republic of China in the United Nations.” The resolution replaced the Republic of China (ROC) with the People’s Republic of China (PRC) as a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council and in the UN General Assembly. The PRC views UN Resolution 2758 as part of broader recognition of its "One China" Principle as an international norm as well as justification of this principle as international law. UN Resolution 2758 was silent on any future participation in the UN by Taiwan, however. Nevertheless, Taiwan has been blocked from active involvement in the UN and UN-affiliated agencies. Taiwan’s exclusion creates risks for the 23.5 million people of Taiwan, as well as for the rest of the world which is unable to benefit from Taiwan’s expertise in global health, cyber security, humanitarian assistance and other areas. These risks have been highlighted by COVID-19 and Taiwan’s successful handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
