What "international law" is he referring to? Where can we see defined terms like "successor government" as it relates to this debt? Honestly, when I do an internet search for "successor government doctrine", all of the search results seem to be entirely centered around this concept that the PRC should have to pay for debts owed by the ROC. It's almost like this is a newly-minted term solely utilized for legislation or arguments against the PRC as it relates to this supposed debt. And all of the invocations of this phrase reference "well established international law", with no citations to this international law they're referencing.
