That depends upon the viewpoint of the people talking about it. Taiwan is part of China instead of an independent country. According to the statement of the U.S., "THE US DOES NOT RECOGNIZE TAIWAN AS AN INDEPENDENT ENTITY. Furthermore, the US does recognize Taiwan as part of China." China has "Anti-Secession Law", which states that mainland China and Taiwan belong to one China and that there is only one China and that the sovereignty of that one China is indivisible. What's more, many countries and the U.N. recognize that Taiwan is part of China and there is one China in the World. For the above reasons, Taiwan is a part of China. The people on Taiwan don't fully agree with that viewpoint and it is still a source of political friction.
