This resolution expresses the House of Representatives' strong opposition to the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) "stolen valor" historical revisionism concerning Allied victory in Asia during World War II. It asserts that the Republic of China (ROC) and its Nationalist forces, not the CCP, bore the primary burden of fighting against the Empire of Japan. The resolution highlights that the CCP engaged in minimal combat against Japan, instead conserving strength to wage civil war against the ROC, and cites historical evidence, including a 1939 report by Chou En-lai, confirming the Nationalist leadership's dominant role. The resolution urges the U.S. Government to actively counter CCP propaganda through public diplomacy and media outreach, ensuring historical accuracy in education, particularly regarding WWII allies. It calls upon the Department of State to use its influence at the United Nations and other international organizations to oppose CCP efforts to distort history, including its disregard for UN General Assembly Resolution 2758. Furthermore, it recognizes the critical cooperative role of Japan , Taiwan, the Philippines, and other like-minded partners in preserving peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific, and supports Taiwan's efforts to strengthen its international relationships and participation.
