Open Letter from the People of Taiwan to the People of China and to Citizens Around the World

With the collaboration of Copilot AI for a more diplomatic version supported by factual context.

1. A world shifting from bipolar to tripolar

The international order is undergoing profound transformation.
Russia, China and the United States have, at different moments, applied military, political or economic pressure on smaller and more vulnerable nations.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine,
China’s military threats against Taiwan,
and U.S. political interventions in regions such as Venezuela
illustrate a new phase of great‑power competition.


2. A call from the world’s civil societies

This letter is not directed at any people or ethnicity.
It is directed at:

  • authoritarian regimes,

  • militaristic expansionism,

  • and political structures that place power above human dignity.

Citizens in China, Russia, the United States and elsewhere who support peace, freedom and global coexistence are invited to share and reproduce this message.


3. Lessons from history

The authoritarian systems of the 20th century caused tens of millions of deaths, famine and repression.
Open societies such as Taiwan, South Korea and Japan achieved far higher levels of prosperity than authoritarian states.

With international support, Taiwan avoided the humanitarian disasters of Maoist rule and built a free, prosperous and innovative society.


4. A new geopolitical reality

Part of today’s U.S. political leadership prioritizes strategic deals and economic interests over the traditional role of defending threatened peoples.
Russia depends on China to sustain its war in Ukraine.
China observes the world’s reaction to Ukraine as an indicator of what might happen in a future aggression against Taiwan.

Cooperation among authoritarian regimes increases the risk of new conflicts and humanitarian crises.


5. The need for a Neo‑UN

The current United Nations plays an essential humanitarian role, but it is limited by veto powers and structures created 80 years ago.
A Neo‑UN, democratic, global, digital and without vetoes, could:

  • prevent conflicts before they erupt,

  • hold aggressors accountable,

  • protect smaller nations,

  • and promote global decisions through universal online voting.


6. Global commitments to prevent an invasion of Taiwan

If China invades Taiwan, civil societies around the world should support democratically approved measures within a future Neo‑UN:

  1. International economic and political boycotts of governments, companies and entities supporting the invasion.

  2. Freezing of assets belonging to individuals and institutions that finance or legitimize aggression.

  3. Creation of a global “Neo‑NATO” to restore occupied territories and protect invaded peoples, as occurred in the defense of South Korea and Kuwait.

  4. Digital boycotts of platforms, products and services linked to the aggressor.

  5. Progressive replacement of “Made in China” with supply chains from democratic and civil societies.

  6. Coordinated global support for Taiwan and for all peoples threatened by contemporary imperialism.


7. A letter with no single author, but millions

This letter belongs to all who defend peace, freedom and global coexistence.
It may be reproduced, translated and shared in any language, in whole or in part.
