National Unification Council

The National Unification Council (Chinese: 國家統一委員會), established in 1990, is a governmental body in the Republic of China on Taiwan whose aim is to promote unification with Mainland China. The council has been out of operation during the administration of Chen Shui-bian since 2000, who leans toward Taiwan independence and opposes Chinese reunification. At the same time, in his Four Noes and One Without policy, Chen has promised not to formally abolish the Council or the Guidelines for National Unification in order to appease the international doubt on his potential move for declaring independence.
