#4  Missiles, nuclear weapons ... it's all good. Taiwan is a delightful thumb in the politburo's eye.

#3  In the past Taiwan has pointed out that when the NPT was written, IT, not the PRC was the legitimate government of China and holder of the UNSC seat.
As such, they consider themselves a legitimate Nuclear Weapons State, albeit one without nuclear weapons, with the right to develop such weapons.

#1  It is amazing that regular Chinese tests of their DF-31 ICBM provoke no such headlines in the media yet a single Taiwanese test of a SRBM is labelled "troublesome".
