Taiwan's UN Bid 2023

In this episode we’re looking at the background to Taiwan’s latest bid for United Nations membership at the 78th United Nations General Assembly and their request for meaningful participation in the UNs Sustainable Development Goals. This is not the first time Taiwan has bid for membership at the UN, however as China’s power and influence have grown over the past decades, it has worked insidiously to isolate Taiwan and create a false narrative at the UN leaving the Taiwanese people feeling like they have no other choice but to succumb to annexation by the Chinese Communist Party.
