Solution
The correct option is B Taiwan
Taiwan wanted to become a member of the United Nations. However, it lost its seat in the UN in 1971, when the UN chose to recognise the People's Republic of China instead. The UN decided that, there could be only one China in the world, and the government in Beijing runs it.
