 == The self-contradictory paragraph == 

 The folllowing paragraph in my view is self-contradictory 
 :The San Francisco Peace Treaty's omission of China as a participant was not an accident of history, but reflected the very true fact that the ROC had failed to maintain its original position as the de jure and de facto government of China. By fleeing to occupied Taiwan in December 1949, the ROC had already become a government in exile. Under international law, there are no actions which a government in exile can take in its current location of residence in order to be recognized as the local legitimate government. Hence, Taiwan's current international problems have arisen from the fact that the ROC government in exile is limited in international recognition as the legitimate government of Taiwan.  

 It first says ""there are no actions which a government in exile can take in its current location of residence in order to be recognized as the local legitimate government"". Then it says ""Taiwan's current international problems have arisen from the fact that the ROC government in exile is limited in internationally recognition as the legitimate government of Taiwan."" 

 So which position does this paragraph take? Is the ROC in exile or not? If it is in exile as parts of this paragraph is suggesting, then the latter part of ""limited in relational recognition"" doesn't work. The word ""limited"" means some, not zero.  "
