[1]With respect to all references to "country" or "countries" in this document,
it should be noted that the Taiwan Relations Act of 1979, Pub. L. No. 96-8,
Section 4(b)(1), provides that "[w]henever the laws of the United States refer
or relate to foreign countries, nations, states, governments, or similar
entities, such terms shall include and such laws shall apply with respect to
Taiwan." 22 U.S.C. § 3303(b)(1). Accordingly, all references to "country" or
"countries" in the Visa Waiver Program authorizing legislation, Section 217 of

This is consistent with the United States' one-China policy, under which the
