Depends on how you read history. Beijing is the successor of pre wwii China in that they own the territory. Taipei is the successor of pre wwii China in that that’s where the government fled to when the revolution occurred.
Comes down to what you think of revolutions. If they’re bad, the uk, or maybe Canada, has a valid claim on the us. If they’re good, the un is going to need a whole lot more chairs and desks.
