Photo exhibition in Nairobi to mark 81st anniversary of Taiwan's restoration

Under the theme of 'Remembering Taiwan's Restoration, Advancing National Reunification', the one-week exhibition features four thematic sections and more than 30 photos.

A photo exhibition to mark the 81st anniversary of Taiwan's restoration to China was held on Friday in Nairobi, the Kenyan capital, bringing together diplomats, scholars, industry leaders and media practitioners.

Guo Haiyan, Chinese Ambassador to Kenya, said the historical fact of Taiwan's restoration, together with international legal instruments, including the Cairo Declaration, the Potsdam Proclamation and the Japanese Instrument of Surrender, constitutes a key link in the historical and legal chain underwriting the one-China principle.

On Oct. 25, 1945, a ceremony to accept Japan's surrender in the Taiwan Province of the China war theatre of the Allied powers was held in Taipei, and Taiwan, which had been under Japanese colonial rule for 50 years, was finally restored to China and returned to the embrace of the motherland, she said.
