>Taiwan is already independent.

That is a very controversial statement, and one that both Taipei and Beijing disagree with.

Controversy doesn't change the reality. Stating that Taiwan is not independent is political posturing. Look to French Guiana, which is not independent.

Taipei only disagrees because they're under threat. Doublespeak should generally be called out. Taiwan lives under perpetual fear of occupation and forced assimilation.
