  Treaty of Taipei - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Treaty of Peace between Japan and China (Japanese: 日華平和条約, Chinese: 中日和平條約), commonly known as the Treaty of Taipei as it was signed in Taipei, was a peace treaty between Japan and the Republic of China (ROC) concluded on April 28, 1952.
This treaty was necessary because neither the Republic of China nor the People's Republic of China were invited to sign the Treaty of San Francisco over disagreements by other countries of which government was the legitimate government of China.
The Treaty suggested that all the inhabitants of Taiwan are viewed as of Republic of China nationality and Japan recognized that ROC sovereignty was limited to the islands of Taiwan and the Pescadores:

Actually the Treaty of Taipei established no ROC claim on Taiwan for the very simple reason that the Japanese had already given up all its claims to Taiwan through the San Francisco Peace Treaty the year before.
What the treaty represents, in fact, is Japan making peace with the government of China, which was not a party to the San Francisco deliberations because of the problem of deciding which of the rival claimants was the real one.
As such, the Treaty of Taipei, along with the 1945 surrender of Taiwan to ROC occupying forces and the Potsdam and Cairo declarations, is part of that amazing feat of diplomatic legerdemain, China's (no matter which one's) claim to Taiwan.

While relations have not returned to the levels of 1997-98, when the two sides exchanged high-profile state summit visits, matters are much improved from 1999, when a host of problems plagued the bilateral relationship—from the Cox Committee report and its allegations of nuclear espionage to the inadvertent bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade.
In China, it is not at all clear that the next generation of one-party technocrats is more open, more “globalized,” or less nationalistic than their predecessors, and concerns about American “hegemonism” and global influence have hardly diminished in the wake of September 11.
In short, in spite of the current mood, the United States and China enter a post-ABM Treaty world in which their strategic nuclear relationship will be fundamentally different than what they have known in the past, and many sensitive and complicated uncertainties will persist through this transition period.

Since Japan formally renounced all right, claim, and title to Formosa (Taiwan) and the Pescadores (Peng-hu) in the San Francisco Peace Treaty of 1951 and the Treaty of Taipei of 1952, the sovereignty of Taiwan is highly debated.
