摘要

台灣的問題在國際法和全球政治上爲一無解事件；是一個影響國際社區、並破壞國際關係的潛在問題製造者。第一次的海峽危機，美國參謀首長聯席會議建議使用核武防禦大陸，當時的美國國務卿杜勒斯也曾公開表示，美國會認真考慮核武攻擊。聯合國擔負國際社會所賦予的神聖信任，需要更積極地履行其任務。在國際法、判例、慣例和規範的大量支持下，聯合國可以開始從事和尋找關於台灣問題的友好解決方案。但當前「不做事」、特別是威脅破壞當前國際秩序的不同規範基礎，造成人道悲慘結果的政策，對聯合國而言並非好事。

The question of Taiwan represents an unsolved episode in international law and global politics. It is a potential trouble affecting the international community and poisoning international relations in general. In the First Taiwan Strait crisis itself, the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff recommended the use of nuclear weapons against the mainland. The then U.S. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles also stated publicly that the U.S. was seriously considering a nuclear strike. The United Nations, which bears the sacred trust of international community, needs to be more outspoken and proactive in fulfilling its mandated tasks. There is ample back up of international law, precedents and established practices and norms for the U.N. to take up and find an amicable solution to the ”Taiwan Question.” The present policy of ”do nothing” does not augur well for the idealistic U.N. Inertia on the part of the U.N., in particular, threatens to undermine the very normative foundation of the current international order, with disastrous consequences for humanity.
