When the power of the state deviates from its power base, the people as holders of power are obliged to resist.

North Korea is without a doubt a vassal of the CCP. Democratic nations should all back Taiwan's efforts toward constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would attract China's 1.4 billion people to seek democratization of the CCP and force North Korea to adopt real democracy, leading in turn to world peace. Democracies worldwide should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia, lighting the way to peaceful development for China. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details.
