| 2005_U_10 Resolution to ratify 12 point peace plan for the Taiwan and China question | ||
| Of all the conflict points within Asia, the question of China and Taiwan is the most concerning in regards to potential world conflict. The political dynamic is simple- Taiwan has always traditionally been a Chinese province. It was only during the Civil War of China that followed the downfall of Imperial Rule and then Japanese occupation that Taiwan became the last refuge and land held by forces opposing Communist rule. Every since, it has remained in political defiance of the mainland, maintaining its own claims of sovereign independence against mainland China. | ||
| Presently, the Chinese population of Taiwan continue the political practices of the last sixty years and profess themselves to be independent citizens of their own sovereign state apart from mainland China. In contrast, as China has grown in political and economic confidence, its Government is feeling less and less inclined to ignore this outstanding issue regarding the unification of all Chinese provinces. This has been reflected in more aggressive military actions and words against Taiwan. | ||
| In response, The United States of America and its allies have stated that they will vigorously defend the sovereign rights of Tawaian against any forced military invasion by China of Taiwan. As a result, the increasingly powerful Chinese military forces are offset against the technologically advanced Allied forces. A stale mate currently exists. | ||
| What is clear is that still stale mate position cannot hold and at some point China may of its own resolution choose to act militarily. The United Nations cannot allow matters to deteriorate to such an event as it would signal a potential global conflict causing the loss of millions of lives which could have been avoided. | ||
| The 12 point plan therefore is rooted in both history and pragmatics. War is to be avoided at all cost and common sense shall prevail. | ||
| 1. Recognition of the historical association of Taiwan as a province of China | ||
| In the first instance, it is for all parties to recognize in common sense and history that for certainly the past few thousand years (excluding the past sixty or so years), Taiwan has traditionally been a province of China. The people of Taiwan are Chinese in race, language and historical culture. Many families share common near term relatives between mainland China and Taiwan. This is historic fact and should not be in dispute. | ||
| 2. Recognition of the historical provincial governing independence of greater China | ||
| In the second instance, it is for all parties to recognize that historically China has always been government not only centrally, but by provincial governments and constitutions that have provided various levels of independence and identity from the single China. | ||
| 3. Recognition that present day and future models exist whereby a province has certain independent autonomy while still being part of greater China | ||
| That both parties agree that present day and future constitutional models exist whereby a province has certain independent autonomy while still being part of greater China That this special independent yet unified relationship is still evident today in the effective model of Hong Kong. | ||
| 4. Recognition of the common historical origins of the present government of China and the government of Taiwan as political adversaries during the Civil War of China | ||
| That both parties to recognize and admit their historical origins as political adversaries during a period of great turmoil and sadness for greater China. | ||
| 5. Recognition that historical advererial matters have played a part in historical relations and claims and counter claims | ||
| 6. Recognition that war and conflict is to be avoided at all costs | ||
| 7. Recognition that the question of sovereign independence while still being part of greater China can be resolved diplomatically | ||
| 8. Recognition by China that Taiwan should retain certain autonomy of its future in being a province of greater China | ||
| 9. Recogition by Taiwan that China is by rights its greater home and that all politics aside, Taiwan should rightfully be part of the Chinese family of provinces. | ||
| 10. Recognition by the United Nations that if such accomodations can be reached that Tawian should hold a permanent membership as a special province of China. | ||
| 11. Non aggression treaty on both sides | ||
| 12. Recognition of the need for a timetable and constitutional framework | ||
