MOFA solemnly refutes false claims made by China’s Foreign Ministry regarding Taiwan
October 22, 2025
On October 21, a spokesperson of China’s Foreign Ministry falsely claimed that Taiwan was an inalienable part of China’s territory and that the Taiwan question was purely China’s internal affair.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) solemnly reiterates that neither the Republic of China (Taiwan) nor the People’s Republic of China is subordinate to the other and that the international community recognizes this status quo. In accordance with Taiwan’s democratization process and the principle of self-determination of peoples enshrined in the United Nations Charter, Taiwan’s sovereignty belongs to the people of Taiwan. This is an irrefutable fact. MOFA categorically refutes China’s false claims and calls on its government to face reality rationally and cease all attempts to mislead the international community.
