    thoughts on the ROC's claims to Outer Mongolia?

      Literally not even true.

      This is a decades long malicious disinformation campaign from Chinese ops. It is verifiably, 100% untrue and hasn't been true for a long time.

      In 1993 the Legislative Yuan asked the Judicial Yuan to clarify what the official territory of the ROC is. Interpretation No. 328 ruled that the legislative intent of the term “inherent/existing” was specifically to avoid setting down precise boundaries, since the areas controlled by the ROC at the time were continually shifting with the tides of the Chinese Civil War. The interpretation thus held that the phrase is political question that cannot be assigned any fixed legal definition.

      They officially declared Mongolia to be an independent country in 2002.

          "Historical proof" They officially declared Mongolia independent in 2002, what else is there to say? Do you want another official statement?

          As for India, I have no clue about their stance. India is irrelevant to this topic, and you're throwing whataboutism.

          And yes, I copied some of the text from a Reddit post. It doesn't invalidate what I said.
