00:00Several world leaders are advocating for Taiwan's inclusion as they gather in New York for the
00:05annual UN assembly.
00:07They say China is misinterpreting a UN resolution to keep Taiwan at the door.
00:13Years ago, China wrongly interpreted UNGA resolution 2758.
00:23And today, it continues to claim that Taiwan is a part of the People's Republic.
00:31The end result has been Taiwan has been silenced.
00:36The 23 million people's voices have been kept unheard, keeping Taiwan out of fully participating
00:47in the UN system and contributing to the world.
00:51Palawan President Sarangulwips Jr. says including Taiwan will help strengthen the United Nations.
00:58The leaders of Paraguay and the Marshall Islands, both allies of Taiwan, also voiced support during
01:04the UN assembly.
01:06Taiwan has been excluded from the UN since 1971, when the People's Republic of China was recognized
01:11as the only representative of China under Resolution 2758.
01:17The resolution does not mention Taiwan by name or say that Taiwan cannot participate in the
01:21UN or its agencies.
01:24As the war in Ukraine continues, Czech President Peter Pavel called on other countries to pay
01:29attention to rising tensions in the Taiwan Strait.
01:33China.
01:34Turning a blind eye to Ukraine today is a green light to any future aggressor anywhere in the world.
01:42Disruptions of the status quo in Taiwan Strait or elsewhere in the Indo-Pacific would further
01:49destabilize global security and trade.
01:53Geographical distance offers no protection.
01:58Security in one part of the world is directly linked to security everywhere.
02:03The UN General Assembly lasts through next Monday.
