How It's Used

“The ‘one China’ policy, started by President Nixon in 1972, said that the U.S. acknowledged the Chinese position that there is one China, Taiwan inclusive. Nevertheless, this acknowledgment stopped short of official U.S. recognition that Taiwan is part of China.”

—Parris Chang, “Clinton Sold Out Taiwan’s Future,” The Wall Street Journal, 7 Jul 98, p. A16.
