Honduras cuts ties with Taiwan, opens relations with China

Honduras has ended its decades-long diplomatic relations with Taiwan in favour of ties with China, prompting Taipei to accuse Beijing of using “coercion and intimidation” to lure its few remaining allies.



The Honduran foreign ministry said on Saturday that “the government of Honduras recognises the existence of just one China in the world”.

 Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang and his Honduran counterpart Eduardo Enrique Reina signed a joint communique in Beijing on the establishment of diplomatic relations at the ambassadorial level.

"The governments of the two countries agreed to develop friendly relations based on the principles of mutual respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, mutual non-aggression, non-interference in each other's internal affairs, equality, mutual benefit and peaceful coexistence," the document says.
