We also urge Chinese Taipei to comply with the provisions of Article 144 of Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949, which provides “The duty incumbent upon States by virtue of Article 144 is general and absolute in character. It must be carried out in peacetime and wartime alike.” The Contracting Parties (the United States and China are both within the Contracting Parties), whether in wartime or peacetime, should disseminate the text of the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949 as widely as possible, especially in the occupied territory, every place of any size should be given a text of the Convention.
