The Empire of China has stated their intent to withdraw from the League of Nations, mimicking the move by the government of Bharat. The French government denounces this action. Although both China and India have stated their objection to the makeup of the League, and their lack of participation among the Permanent Members, I must call attention to the complete and utter hypocrisy of this spurious position. Not once in their many years of membership in the League of Nations has either China or India made any request, any motion whatsoever to propose alternatives to the composition of the League. No official complaint about its organization has ever been voiced. This withdrawal is no principled stand of nations seeking equivalence with their counterparts, but a mere childish tirade by two nations which have, in the past, attempted to use the League to justify their own imperialistic ends. China claims that military strength is the only arbiter of a nation's presence in the Permanent Members, but this is an absolute lie. China has a larger standing military than any of the League's permanent members - nay, any two of them combined. And unsatisfied with that, China continues to arm and purchase new military equipment and raise more divisions. India's significant military strength is well-known as well, as one of the largest and most battle-tested armies in the last fifteen years, by which they've won for themselves an empire.
No, the Permanent Membership is not adjudicated by military strength. The Permanent Members are instead the founders of the League, the visionaries of its mission, and the most consistent adherents to the League's principles. Neither China nor India have become Permanent Members because neither of them have acted in the manner befitting a Permanent Member. Neither have shown any interest in becoming one.
Make no mistake, gentlemen. This is just another ploy by China and India in their cold war against the supposed evils of European imperialism. By making a dramatic departure from the League, with high language and noble-sounding overtures to peace, hope, and fluffy bunnies, India and China hope to score a moral blow against the ideals of the League of Nations. We are not fooled. China or India never once made overtures to change the League. They've simply invented the most compelling-sounding excuse to leave, a clever soundbite for the radios and newspapers.
Having thus withdrawn from the League, India and China have spurned the collaborative efforts of some of the League's most important projects. They have ended cooperation with the world on the Permanent Central Opium Board. They have ended cooperation with the Slavery Commission. They have terminated their participation to prevent the Trafficking in Women and Children. They've withdrawn from agreements giving oversight on intellectual collaboration, health, assistance for refugees, and labor. And most important of all, they have spurned the League's primary mission - preventing another world war through the efforts of international diplomacy.
By their departure, India and China have signaled their adherence to the previous principle - that might shall be the sole adjudicator of international disputes. Let us all hope, for the peace of the world, that their leaders do not choose to put this principle into effect.

With China's statement withdrawing their claim to the disputed Paracel Islands, the French government moves that the Iberian mandate of the Paracels, held while the League adjudicated their ownership, be terminated and the islands officially transferred to the sole remaining claimant, Indochina.
