Page "Irredentism" Paragraph 16

Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, the ROC government on Taiwan maintained itself to be the legitimate ruler of Mainland China.

As part of its current policy of ' status quo ', the ROC has not renounced claims over the territories currently controlled by the People's Republic of China, Mongolia, and Tuvan Republic in Russia, Northern Burma and some Central Asian states bordering areas.

However, the ROC does not actively pursue these claims in practice ; the remaining claims that the ROC are actively seeking are the Diaoyu Islands, whose sovereignty is also asserted by Japan and the PRC ; and the Spratly Islands in South China Sea, with multiple claimants.
