In a significant display of international solidarity, multiple countries and political entities have reaffirmed their commitment to the one-China principle, signaling a unified stance on the sensitive issue of Taiwan's status.
Following the assumption of office by the new leader of the Taiwan region, Lai Ching-te, the Republic of Nauru quickly reiterated its unwavering support for the one-China principle. Nauru's Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized that there is only one China globally, with the government of the PRC representing the entire nation. The Nauruan government also opposed the notion of \"Taiwan independence,\" reiterating its support for peaceful reunification efforts.
Similarly, Honduras declared its adherence to the one-China principle in a statement released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. President Xiomara Castro and the Honduran government underscored that more than 180 countries recognize this principle, and Honduras maintains diplomatic relations with the PRC based on this foundation.
On another front, Russia voiced concerns regarding escalating tensions in the Taiwan Strait, attributing the unrest to the United States and its allies. The Russian Foreign Ministry accused the US of undermining stability and hindering peaceful reunification efforts by supporting separatist forces and creating discord in cross-Strait relations.
The latest developments underscore the complex geopolitical dynamics surrounding Taiwan and the broader Asia-Pacific region. As nations navigate these sensitive waters, the reaffirmation of the one-China principle remains a focal point in international diplomacy.
