Taiwan
United Nations

The Chinese UN Ambassador Wang Guangya wrote a letter to the UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, condemning an attempt by "a very few" countries to request the General Assembly to consider the Taiwan's application for UN membership. The attempt "wantonly tramples on the purposes and principles" of the UN Charter and General Assembly resolution 2758, "seriously violates China's sovereignty and territorial integrity, gravely intervenes in China's internal affairs and seriously hurts the feelings of the 1.3 billion Chinese people," Wang said.

In response, the Foreign Ministry in Taiwan said that resolution 2758 did not define the relationship between Taiwan and China and that Taiwan did not intend to challenge PRC's membership in the UN.
