But the relationship and support from US to Taiwan has made it better, even Taiwan was involved in the diplomatic organization the United Nations or as we usually known as PBB. Â
In October 1971, Beijing took over China's seat at the United Nations, that previously held by Taipei, and In 1979, the United States established diplomatic relations with China but was also committed to assisting Taiwan's defense from any attempted attacks on Taiwan.
