The so-called Republic of China (ROC) is a neoliberal rump-state currently occupying the PRC Province of Taiwan. It has historically been dominated by the right-wing Kuomintang.

ADIZ

After the Second World War, the United States established the Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ). It is not recognized by international law and includes large portions of mainland China.[1]

Foreign relations

The United Nations ended recognition of the Republic of China in 1971 and the United States withdrew recognition in 1979.[2]

U.S. support

In 1982, the U.S. signed a communique with the PRC to gradually end arms sales to the ROC. The United States did not follow the communique and has sold $14 billion of weapons to the ROC.[2]
