    ROC doesn’t claim to legitimately rule China anymore. That was just KMT’s delusion, and they’re no longer in power.

          I don’t see what in that article says what you’re saying.

          The amendments changed the law such that Taiwan could start having elections without controlling the mainland which might be termed a de facto acceptance of the situation but formally the claims have not been revoked.

            After these articles, the “free area” was defined to include just the areas that ROC controls, so the parliament no longer has representatives for mainland Chinese provinces. Based on that, the parliament no longer claims to represent all of China, and the ruling DPP asserts that Taiwan is a separate sovereign state from China. https://jhulr.org/2024/06/12/taiwans-constitutional-battle-the-case-for-the-republic-of-china-roc-constitution/
