China claiming Taiwan doesn't mean anything since they like trying to claim land that isn't theirs the same way as Russia.
If anything, I'd say PRC's claim to Taiwan is weaker than Russia's claim to land it has held historically, is populated by Russian speakers, who've voted to become part of Russia, whose people are in mortal danger should Russia lose control of, and which Russia has administered for almost 2 years.
both Taiwan (Republic of China) and the Peoples Republic of China, both agree they are the same country, the disagreement is over what government they have.
Fun fact Taiwan (Republic of China) also lays claim to mongolia and more of the South China Sea than the Peoples Republic of China does
