Nicaragua's "Severance of Diplomatic Relations" with Taiwan Decided to Strike A Blow to the United States Analysis on the Island: Don't Think That the United States Will Be Stable Nicaragua will by no means be the last

　　After Nicaragua announced on the morning of 10 December Beijing time that it had "severed diplomatic relations" with Taiwan, the Taiwan side reacted quickly, and the foreign-related organs of the DPP authorities said that they felt "sad and regretful" about the "severance of diplomatic relations" and wanted to immediately terminate the so-called "cooperation" and "assistance" with Nicaragua. Tsai Ing-wen, the leader of the DPP authorities, linked the result of the "severance of diplomatic relations" to complex international politics and the cross-strait situation. According to foreign reports, the current government of Nicaragua has "turned its face" with the United States, and the so-called "severance of diplomatic relations" with Taiwan is a blow to the Biden administration. The US State Department subsequently issued a statement attacking Nicaraguan President Ortega's so-called "severance of diplomatic relations" decision. According to the analysis of people with foreign-related experience on the island, we should not think that with the presence of the United States, we will be able to stabilize Taiwan's so-called "countries with diplomatic relations." Nicaragua is not the first, nor will it be, the last country to "sever diplomatic relations" with Taiwan.

　　After Nicaragua announced the so-called "severance of diplomatic relations" with Taiwan, Taiwan's foreign-related departments quickly issued a pale and feeble statement, which was obviously known in advance. The statement said that Nicaragua had "unilaterally decided" to "sever diplomatic relations" with Taiwan, and that the Taiwan side was "deeply saddened and regretful." In order to maintain the so-called "dignity", from now on, the bilateral cooperation and assistance programs have been completely stopped, and the technical regiment personnel have been evacuated.

　　Tsai Ing-wen also said in response on the morning of the 10th that the so-called "severance of diplomatic relations" decision involves complex international politics and the cross-strait situation. Luo Bingcheng, spokesman for Taiwan's administrative organs, said he was angry at the so-called "severance of diplomatic relations," saying that the Taiwan side had all the relevant information, and he did not forget to accuse the mainland of exerting pressure on Taiwan's so-called "international status and environment."

　　According to media reports on the island, this is the second time that the Nicaraguan government has "severed diplomatic relations" with Taiwan, two times separated by 36 years, and both decisions were made during the reign of current President Ortega in Nicaragua. After Nicaragua announced the so-called "severance of diplomatic relations," Taiwan's foreign-related departments quickly updated the list of so-called "countries with diplomatic relations" on their websites, and the flag of Nicaragua has disappeared.

　　Nicaragua is the eighth country since the DPP came to power on the island in 2016, with the remaining seven countries including Sao Tome and Principe, Panama, Dominica, Burkina Faso, El Salvador, solomon Islands and Kiribati. There are currently only 14 countries left maintaining so-called official relations with Taiwan.

　　The political parties on the island, including the Kuomintang and the People's Party, accused Wu Zhaoxie, who was known as the so-called "minister of severing diplomatic relations," for constantly using various occasions to play up the so-called "resistance to China and defend Taiwan." However, the industry was in a mess and should resign and take responsibility for this. Tsai Ing-wen "excused" Wu Zhaoxie through an office spokesperson, saying that the so-called "severance of diplomatic relations" was "suppressed" by the mainland, saying that Wu Zhaoxie's team was "very hard" and there was no question of resignation.

　　In addition, according to the analysis of the island's media, the so-called "diplomatic relations" between Honduras, another Central American country, and Taiwan are also in jeopardy. Castro, the president-elect of Honduras, has said that after winning the election, he will establish diplomatic relations with the Chinese mainland, but the attitude of the Castro camp has changed under the pressure and intervention of the United States. Public opinion on the island also satirized Tsai Ing-wen and ridiculed Taiwan's so-called foreign-related relations as a decision on the United States.

　　Central America and the Caribbean are considered by the United States to be the so-called "backyard of their own houses." "Reuters" analyzed that the so-called "severance of diplomatic relations" between Nicaragua and Taiwan is a blow to the Biden administration of the United States. It also quoted that Washington's sanctions on Nicaragua have led to the disappearance of U.S. influence over Nicaragua, and it is not surprising that Ortega made the so-called "severance of diplomatic relations" choice.

　　People with foreign-related experience on the island remind that in order to confront China, the United States is indeed helping the DPP authorities, and Honduras is an example, but don't think that with the United States, the so-called "countries with diplomatic relations" can be stabilized. The two years of cross-strait relations are so grim that these two years are the "most severe" situation in Taiwan's so-called foreign-related relations, and Nicaragua is not the first and will not be the last.
