Three China News Network reported that Kuomintang lawmaker Weng Xiaoling took out the ROC territory map with the 'Autumn Begonia,' claiming the Ministry of National Defense should counterattack mainland China. However, Minister of National Defense Gu Li Xiong coldly responded that if you follow that logic, does Outer Mongolia also belong to the ROC territory? Media veteran Wen Langdong analyzed in the program '94 Complaints' that based on historical context, relevant treaty documents, and foreign diplomatic actions, the ROC's sovereignty over Outer Mongolia lasted only about seven years, without effective governance. Wen Langdong pointed out the ROC relinquished its claim to Mongolia after 1961 when the Mongolian People's Republic joined the United Nations and the ROC abandoned its veto power, indicating that neither the ROC nor the PRC asserted sovereignty over Mongolia.
