Episode Synopsis

On this special edition of The Point, we are taken back to a pivotal moment in global diplomacy: October 25, 1971, when the United Nations passed Resolution 2758, recognizing the People's Republic of China as the sole lawful representative of China at the UN. Joining us today is a unique eyewitness to history: Charles Liu, founder and chairman of HAO Capital, and founding director of the Center for China and the World at the City University of Macao. Born in Taiwan, he stood at the UN headquarters as the resolution passed. Hear his reflections on that defining day and his response to those now questioning its legacy.
