(Washington / Taipei / Beijing Comprehensive News) U.S. Secretary of State Brills said that the United States has strongly encouraged the World Health Organization (WHO) to invite Taiwan to participate in the World Health Conference (WHA) as an observer.
The 77th WHO will be held in Geneva, Switzerland from May 27th to June 1st.Based on the US State Department News and Reuters reports, Brinken issued a statement on Wednesday (May 1st) local time saying that inviting Taiwan to attend as an observer is a key step towards the goal of confirming the goal of "everyone with health".
Brinken said that Taiwan has continued to be excluded from the World Guard Conference, destroying the inclusive global public health cooperation and security.
He shows that the United States supports Taiwan to participate in the international forum meaningfully, in line with the United States' Chinese policy based on the Taiwan Relations Law, the United States and China Three Joint Bulletin and the "Six guarantees".
According to Taiwan Zhongshi News Network, Taiwan Foreign Minister Wu Zhaozheng said on Thursday that Taiwan still faces difficulties in participating in the WHO this year because Beijing continues to decide Taiwan with the UN General Assembly No. 2758 to prevent Taiwan from participating in international organization activities.In addition to Brinken, Wu Zhaozheng hopes to get the support of more countries.
In response to Brinton's statement, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman expressed strong dissatisfaction and resolute opposition on the official website on Thursday on the official website, and stated that the US statement seriously violated the three joint communiqués of China and China and the United States.
A spokesman reiterated that participating in international organizations in Taiwan, including the issue of WHO, must be handled in accordance with the principle of China. This is also the fundamental principle confirmed by the UN General Assembly resolution No. 2758 and the WHO No. 25.1 resolution."The DPP officially stubbornly insisted on the split position of the‘ Taiwan independence ’, causing the political foundation for the WHO of Taiwan to participate in the WHO.
A spokesman urged the United States to stop the hype of the World Guard Conference to speculate in Taiwan, and did not send an error signal to the "Taiwan independence" division forces.
During the administration of former Taiwan President Ma Ying -jeou, from 2009 to 2016, Taiwan participated in the WHO as an observer.Since the DPP's Taiwan Cai Yingwen took office in 2017, in Beijing's opposition, Taiwan will no longer attend the meeting.
