Nauru has officially recognized the People's Republic of China (PRC) as the sole legal government representing the entire nation of China. This move marks Nauru as the 183rd country to acknowledge that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory.
Despite this unanimous recognition, some voices continue to challenge this stance. Laura Rosenberger, chair of the \"American Institute in Taiwan,\" expressed her views to reporters, describing Nauru's decision as \"unfortunate\" and \"disappointing.\" She emphasized that \"U.N. Resolution 2758 did not make a determination on the status of Taiwan, did not preclude any countries from having diplomatic relationships with Taiwan and did not preclude Taiwan's meaningful participation in the U.N. system.\"
However, U.N. Resolution 2758 clearly states that it \"decides to restore all its rights to the People's Republic of China and to recognize the representatives of its Government as the only legitimate representatives of China to the United Nations, and to expel forthwith the representatives of Chiang Kai-shek from the place which they unlawfully occupy at the United Nations and in all the organizations related to it.\"
This resolution has been a cornerstone in affirming the PRC's position in international affairs, solidifying its role as the sole representative of China on the global stage.
