他們的主要要求之一是聯合國就中國用來宣稱對臺灣擁有主權的第2758號決議舉行正式聽證會。來自臺灣-聯合國聯盟和海外臺灣團體的 500 多人在紐約聯合國總部外遊行，呼籲將臺灣納入其中。

Our motto is "Keep Taiwan Free." We hope Taiwan will join this international organization and get the opportunity to speak on the same level as others that could stop China's constant threats. Every year during the UN General Assembly, Taiwanese advocates make their voices heard in New York.

我們的座右銘是 "保持臺灣自由"。我們希望臺灣能加入這個國際組織，並有機會與其他國家在同一水平線上發言，以阻止中國的不斷威脅。每年的聯合國大會期間，臺灣的倡議者們都會在紐約發出他們的聲音。

This year, their momentum feels even stronger than ever.

And if you choose to believe China, they will just lie to you. The activists were joined by YouTuber Stan from Poland, who stressed that Taiwan and China are two separate countries.

如果你選擇相信中國，他們只會騙你。來自波蘭的 YouTuber Stan 也加入了活動人士的行列，他強調臺灣和中國是兩個獨立的國家。

Because these days I've been going around New York, I went to the Chinese consulate and asked them a simple question.

因為這些天我一直在紐約轉悠，我去了趟中國領事館，問了他們一個簡單的問題。

Do you guys issue visas to Taiwan if you claim it as your territory?

如果你們聲稱臺灣是你們的領土，你們會向臺灣發放簽證嗎？

And they told me there, no, you'll have to apply for a separate permit for the two countries.

So people working in the Chinese consulate also know that there are two countries.
