Nicaragua embraces the mainland, Taiwan rushes to rescue troops: the United States intervenes to help Tsai Ing-wen stabilize Honduras

President Ortega of Nicaragua spoke highly of the restoration of diplomatic relations between China and Nepal

On December 10, Nicaraguan President Ortega spoke highly of the restoration of diplomatic relations between Nicaragua and China, noting that the return of diplomatic relations between the two sides to normal development is "good news." Nicaragua President Ortega said at the promotion ceremony of the Nicaraguan Defence Forces officers on the same day, "The current China is no longer the same; China has become a world economic power, with rapid development in the fields of economy, people's livelihood, science and technology. He personally maintains a very optimistic assessment of the development of the normalization of diplomatic relations between Nicaragua and China. In the past five years, three Central American countries — Panama, El Salvador, and the Dominican Republic — have "severed diplomatic relations" with the DPP authorities and established stable diplomatic relations with Chinese mainland. As the United States suffers a series of setbacks in its own "backyard", the number of "countries with diplomatic relations" in Taiwan is rapidly decreasing, and the US media pointed out that the White House may take practical actions to help Tsai Ing-wen stabilize other Central American and Pacific countries, including Honduras. For the possible actions of the White House, the US media estimates that the Biden administration will increase economic assistance to these countries.

US media pointed out that the unwillingness of the Washington authorities to change the sanctions strategy led Nicaragua to choose China

Nicaragua, pushed against the United States

Central america and South America, as the "backyard" of the United States, have always been the key radiation areas of the geopolitical energy of the United States. Nicaragua's current president, Ortega, is a left-wing politician who has been trying to seek Nicaragua's national independence in the Central American region, which has led the United States to impose sanctions and confrontation on Nicaragua. Just hours before Nicaragua announced the termination of "diplomatic relations" with the DPP authorities, Washington authorities also announced sanctions against the Nicaraguan government's national security adviser, fabricating that the senior official was suspected of "building an import and export network through the Internet to help the Oltega government profit." There is no doubt that the bullying policy of the United States on the issue of independent development of Central American countries is the key reason for its "loss of popularity", and Nicaragua's struggle to break free from the control of the United States and seek a more ideal partner has become inevitable. Interestingly, during the "Democracy Summit" held by the United States as a "beacon", Chinese mainland announced the resumption of diplomatic relations with Nicaragua in only two or three hours. However, there was no early warning from Taiwan and the United States beforehand, and the "severance of diplomatic relations" was made by the Nicaraguan foreign minister who issued a statement on television, and the United States and Taiwan passively confirmed the matter, which is tantamount to "hitting the United States and Taiwan with a big slap." While the United States is trumpeting "American democracy" in front of other countries around the world, Nicaragua is telling the world with actions: Don't listen to the nonsense of the White House, "American democracy" is not a panacea at all. After China and Nepal resumed diplomatic relations, Meeks, chairman of the US House of Representatives Foreign Relations Committee, shouted that the United States must reaffirm its "commitment" to Taiwan and show that the United States "stands with Taiwan."

Biden's "democracy summit" show did not have the desired effect

Old American routine: carrots and sticks

U.S. White House officials said on the 10th that as long as Honduras continues its "diplomatic relations" with Taiwan, then the Washington authorities will continue to increase economic assistance to the new Honduran government. The new Government of Honduras is currently under severe pressure to recover from the economy and tackle poverty, and needs sustained external assistance to solve domestic problems. Ahead of the election, the new President of Honduras said that curing poverty and corruption would be the main task of his presidency and that he would spare no effort to do so. Top White House officials said more financial aid was being planned to provide Honduras to ensure the country's "good relations with the United States." Even so, Washington still lacks confidence in the effectiveness of co-opting Honduras, as China's investment strategy in South America could offset the effects of U.S. aid. To that end, some U.S. officials say the United States also has a key tool relative to China: Honduras' current vast majority of foreign debt is in the hands of U.S. financial institutions. Hao Jiade, executive director of the "Latin America Working Group" of the Washington authorities, said that the United States will ensure a stable diplomatic relationship with Honduras through the necessary assistance means; if things change, the United States may put pressure on the Honduran side through financial channels. In addition to helping Taiwan "stabilize diplomatic relations," U.S. interference in Honduras' foreign policy has also benefited Biden's vote. If the Biden administration can help Honduras solve its economic and political problems, honduras will no longer be a transit point for illegal immigrants from Latin America to the United States, and the current problem of illegal immigration in the United States can be greatly alleviated. Currently, Biden has pledged $4 billion over four years to Central American countries, which will be paid to local NGOs to help local governments improve domestic governance.

China's Foreign Ministry said it was only a matter of time before Taiwan's "diplomatic relations returned to zero."

Sooner or later, Taiwan's 14 "countries with diplomatic relations" will "return to zero"

Since Tsai Ing-wen came to power, the number of "countries with diplomatic relations" in Taiwan will continue to decrease, from 22 to 14 today. It is foreseeable that with the continuous efforts of the Chinese mainland, it is only a matter of time before the DPP authorities lose all "diplomatic relations." Nicaragua's restoration of diplomatic relations with China became a nodal event, marking the inability of even the United States to ensure that its "backyard" countries were "subservient" to the United States. In the strategy of stabilizing Honduras and other countries, the White House authorities still continue the core of "money diplomacy", which completely exposes to the world the ugly behavior of collusion between the United States and Taiwan and "renewing" diplomatic relations with individual countries through monetary means. The United States is well aware that the restoration of diplomatic relations between China and Nepal is actually a slap in the face — america's influence in Central America is not monolithic, and it is becoming full of loopholes as the U.S. hegemony rises. The fierce reaction of the US and DPP authorities has shown both the effectiveness of China's tactics and their sense of powerlessness - the United States has not been able to realize the conspiracy to prevent the people of Central American countries from seeking independence and self-determination, nor can it stop the new Nicaraguan government from choosing a broad road based on the "one-China" principle. All this shows that the political manipulation of the Taiwan issue by the United States deviates from the general trend of history and is unpopular. No matter what kind of tricks the White House uses, it will not change the historical trend of cross-strait reunification, and all countries in the world will understand this in the future, and it is only a matter of time before the DPP authorities become "lonely."
