The Joint Communiqué of the Government of Japan and the Government of the People's Republic of China (Chinese: 中华人民共和国政府与日本政府的联合声明 Zhōnghuá Rénmín Gònghéguó Zhèngfǔ yǔ Rìběn Zhèngfǔ de Liánhé Shēngmíng? Japanese: 日本国政府と中華人民共和国政府の共同声明 Nippon-koku Seifu to Chūkajinmin-kyōwakoku Seifu no Kyōdō Seimei) was signed in Beijing on September 29, 1972. This established diplomatic relations between Japan and the People's Republic of China and resulted in the severing of official relations between Japan and the Republic of China on Taiwan. Specifically, the treaty ended the "abnormal relations" between Japan and China, recognized the People's Republic of China as the "sole government of China" and renounced any claim for war reparations from World War II. It firmly maintains its stand under Article 8 of the Potsdam Declaration, which refers to the Cairo Declaration, stating return of Manchuria, Formosa (Taiwan) and the Pescadores to the Republic of China.
