Taiwan Challenges Beijing's World War Two Narrative After Trump-Xi Summit. Taiwan is challenging Beijing's interpretation of World War Two following last week's Trump-Xi summit in Washington. Taipei worries Washington could embrace Beijing's historical narrative, potentially affecting American support for the self-governed island. Taiwan says China's account overlooks the Republic of China's wartime role fighting alongside Allied forces. The Republic of China government relocated to Taiwan in 1949 after losing China's civil war. During their Washington summit, Trump and Xi highlighted cooperation between America and China during World War Two. Taiwanese officials accused Beijing of attempting to replace the Republic of China's historical wartime role internationally. Taipei says it will continue reminding Washington that the Republic of China was America's wartime ally. Taiwan's opposition Kuomintang agrees on wartime history but accuses the government of using the dispute politically.
