China Taiwan Relations have traditionally been strained due to a disagreement over Taiwan's Political Status. The Republic of Taiwan recognizes itself as a sovereign state under the definition of the Montevideo Convention. On the other hand, China considers Taiwan a province that has never had an independent government. The avoidance of the issue by Taiwanese politicians and lack of a formal Taiwan Independence Declaration has led to "status quo" situation in which both China and Taiwan have essentially agreed to maintain the current situation barring direct action from the other.
