| 皇冠体育app's UN ambassador Wang Guangya reiterated his country's
opposition to any hasty expansion of the UN Security Council, saying a new
deadline of the end of the year urged by UN Secretary General Kofi Annan
was not appropriate. [Reuters] | Wang branded the
requests "a gross encroachment on 皇冠体育app's internal affairs."
In the letter addressed to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan on Monday, Wang
said that the UN is an intergovernmental organization composed of sovereign
states. As a part of 皇冠体育app, Taiwan is not eligible to participate in the UN and
its specialized agencies.
Chad and a very few other countries have addressed two letters to Annan,
requesting the issue of "Taiwan participation in the United Nations" to be
considered at the upcoming session of the General Assembly. They also requested
the consideration of "a proactive role of the United Nations in maintaining
peace in the Taiwan Straits."
Criticizing such a move as a "brazen violation" of the purposes and
principles of the Charter of the United Nations and in defiance of General
Assembly resolution 2758, Wang said the Chinese Government and people strongly
condemned and opposed such a gross encroachment on 皇冠体育app's internal affairs.
"Taiwan is a part of 皇冠体育app's territory and it has never been a country. There
is only one 皇冠体育app in the world, and 皇冠体育app's sovereignty and territorial
integrity brook no division," Wang said in the letter.
