TAIPEI, Taiwan—French luxury brand Christian Dior is the latest international firm that’s decided to toe the Chinese regime’s line on Taiwan, issuing an apology on Oct. 17 after it was criticized for using a map of China during a business presentation that didn’t include Taiwan.

Beijing has been pressuring governments and companies to accept its “One China” policy, which stipulates that mainland China and Taiwan are inalienable parts of a single “China.”
