The build up of troops on the border of Ukraine, and the Chinese military incursions into Taiwan’s airspace have not been drummed up by the US news.
And, the so-called incursion is to Taiwan's air defence identification zone. That zone covers majority of Fujian province. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Defense_Identification_Z... Literally, mainlanders are intrusion Taiwan adiz constantly. That's how ridiculous the western media repotting has been nowadays. They'll refuse to even acknowledge an obviously physically impossible situation, and blame on China...
This is the CCP position, yes.
Also, I see your account was created 3 years ago, but only became active in the last hour to post defenses of the CCP and China.
And who made that "international law"? The CCP? Taiwan is sovereign because they want to be, overwhelmingly.
China's imperialism towards Taiwan is just imperialism, like in Tibet and Hong Kong. And like Russia in Ukraine.
Nothing different than the U.S. did in Philippines, Iran and Latin America during most of 20th century.
In the unilateral case, China prevents individual countries from recognizing Taiwan or even implying it’s independence through threats and retaliation.
A recent example: https://news.yahoo.com/china-threatened-send-lithuania-garba...
The only reason Taiwan is not considered sovereign under international law is because China has prevented it.
Same question as here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29677548
Which "international law" are you referring to that doesn't consider Taiwan sovereign? Maybe you mean to say that Taiwan/ROC is not a member of the UN? That is true, but it doesn't mean that Taiwan isn't a sovereign country. Switzerland didn't become a sovereign country only in 2002.
But, you are right, this is not the same at all as an ‘international law’ establishing that Taiwan is not a sovereign country.
I think you are just stating that that is part of the international law, right? Law is just law. It went to effect for stakeholders agree that they can abide by bits ruling.
Texas is not independent because US does not allow that. Right? Because the law dictates that the sovereign power is legally the care giver of a group of population on a land.
You are mixing law and self conscience.

This is relatively balanced description on the issue. One can certainly see that the politics have made the matter intentionally vague.
And nternational law is not necessarily written. It could be some commonly agreed principles. For example, there is no written law says US government can govern the land on here. It's based a certain aggreed upon concepts in people's mind.
If you can provide us with a link to the law in question, we might be able to go into this question in more detail.
Until then I think it’s fair to assume that you are mistaken.
Which "international law" exactly states that Taiwan is a part of "China"? For example, the UN certainly has never taken that position. (Many people mistakenly believe that UN Resolution 2758 says that, but even a cursory reading of the short resolution shows.)
Note also that capital D Democratic refers to an American political party. Lowercase d democratic is correct for your comment.
