「市長聯盟」矮化台灣　6都市長齊發聲明抗議：不排除退出

政治中心／綜合報導

國際氣候組織「全球市長聯盟」日前擅自在官網將我國6個城市會員參與名稱篡改歸類在中國一事，我國6都也相繼表達抗議，其中除新北市已在9月15日去信表達抗議並要求更正外，台中市、台北市也嚴正抗議並稱不排除退出。27日晚間六都市長聯合發出聲明強調，若「氣候及能源市長聯盟」無正面回應與行動，台灣六城市將不排除退出該聯盟，以捍衛我方權益。

針對氣候及能源市長聯盟對台灣六城市之註冊名稱聲明稿，全文如下：

此致氣候及能源市長聯盟秘書長：

首先感謝貴聯盟提供平台，讓台灣六城市能夠呈現關於減排與能源轉型的努力成果，在聯合國永續發展目標的前提下，攜手為世界的未來盡一份心力。

然而，台灣六城市自加入貴聯盟以來，從來就不是中國的一部分。對於本次註冊名稱遭到片面更改，列入中國的一部分，台灣六城市拒絕這項矮化的行為，拒絕被列入「中國的城市」。新北市政府已於今年9月15日發信向市長聯盟位於比利時布魯塞爾秘書處表達立場並要求更正，惟迄今仍未收到回覆或更正。

台灣六城市強烈要求，請貴聯盟立即停止這項錯誤行為，並將我方城市之註冊名稱，更改回原始註冊名稱。

若貴聯盟無正面回應與行動，台灣六城市將不排除退出貴聯盟，以捍衛我方權益。

Sustainable Taiwan, sustainable world. 地球永續不應矮化台灣。平等、互惠、尊重，是國際合作的基本原則，我方希望能繼續維持和貴聯盟良好的參與經驗，並繼續為全球永續努力。

Statement on the registered names of the six cities in Taiwan by the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy

To

Secretary General of the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy

First of all, six of Taiwan member cities thanks GCoM for providing a platform to enable us to present results of our efforts in emission reduction and energy transformation, and work together to contribute to the future of the world under the United Nations sustainable development goals.

Cities in Taiwan have never been part of China since they joined the GCoM alliance. In regards to the one-sided change of the registered name and made them part of China. The six cities in Taiwan refuse this dwarfing behavior and rejected to be included under the "City of China." New Taipei City Government sent a letter to the GCoM secretariat in Brussels, Belgium this September 15th and made clear statement to make corrections. However, the authority yet receive any response from GCoM secretariat to date.

The six cities in Taiwan strongly request that your alliance immediately fix the website and change the registered names of our cities back to the original registered Nationality.

If your alliance has no positive response and actions, the six cities in Taiwan will withdrawal from your alliance in order to defend our rights and interests.

Sustainable Taiwan, sustainable world. The sustainable world should not dwarf Taiwan. Equality, reciprocity, and respect are the basic principles of international cooperation. We hope that we can continue to maintain our good experience in participating in the alliance and continue to work for global sustainability.
