Since 2016, Taiwan has engaged in gold dollar diplomacy.
To put it simply, the so-called gold dollar diplomacy is to obtain international support from Pacific island countries and small countries in Latin America by throwing money on a large scale.
In other words, as long as you recognize Taiwan's status, I will give you money, ask for money for money, and ask for resources for resources.
Therefore, during that period of time, there were indeed some small countries on the international stage that said and did things against their will in order to obtain immediate profits.
2016 is also a very sensitive time point, because 2016 began with the DPP administration led by Tsai Ing-wen.
In the process of the rapid decline of cross-strait relations, Taiwan has given more and more money to many small countries, and they believe that through this way of giving money, they can change the international pattern and find a group of countries that support them in the world.
However, as everyone knows, cross-strait reunification is a major international trend, and Taiwan will always be an inalienable part of China.
After tossing back and forth, except for some special island countries, no country has any illusions about Taiwan, and even those island countries want them to say a few words on the international stage casually, which needs to cost a lot of money.
In addition, the Taiwan issue is the bottom line issue of the mainland, which belongs to the dragon's anti-scale, and whoever dares to touch the bottom line will definitely fight to the end, even if the old beauty is secretly eye-dropping, he will definitely not dare to blatantly touch the red line on the Taiwan issue.
Those small island countries are even more so, and the two sentences called on weekdays are just to get more subsidies, and when the money is enough, naturally they don't say much.
But when there is enough money, people's hearts are not enough, and the same is true of island countries, and some small countries will seek subsidies from Taiwan at every turn, and Taiwan will be exhausted, including Honduras.
The establishment of diplomatic relations with Honduras demonstrates the strength of a great power.
On the 26th of last month, a major event occurred in the world, of course, it is not so much a major event as a general trend.
In addition to its greater influence on Taiwan, it has basically no impact on other countries, that is, Honduras, which has established diplomatic relations with Taiwan, announced that it has severed all relations with Taiwan and formally established diplomatic relations with the mainland.
What is even more amazing is that Honduras established diplomatic relations with Chinese mainland on the 26th of last month, and everyone knows that Ma Ying-jeou began to come to the mainland to worship his ancestors on the 27th of last month.
Before Honduras established diplomatic relations with the mainland, there were rumors that the reason why Honduras broke off diplomatic relations with Taiwan was because the Honduran lion opened its mouth, but Taiwan could not meet Honduras' demands.
At the beginning, it was only spread on the Internet, and everyone did not know what the meaning behind it was, thinking that it was a lie.
But until recently, I understood the profound meaning of this.
After all, Honduras applied less than a month after establishing diplomatic relations with the mainland, hoping that we would help them pay off their debts, but this matter is not as simple as imagined.
Because the establishment of diplomatic relations between Honduras and the mainland is the trend of the times, and more importantly, Honduras is fulfilling the promises of those elected.
Castro is the latest president of Honduras, and when he ran for president, he publicly stated that once he was elected president, he would sever all diplomatic ties with the Taiwan authorities and establish diplomatic relations with the mainland instead.
Most of the slogans shouted during the election process need to be implemented, especially certain country risks and national indicators, so from this point of view, the establishment of diplomatic relations between Honduras and the mainland is the result of the President of Honduras understanding the needs of the general situation and coming with sincerity.
So why did some small countries in Latin America establish diplomatic relations with Taiwan in the early years?
In fact, the main reason lies in the embarrassing situation in Latin America, on the surface, there is a talker in North and South America, there is a small follower, the talker is the United States, the small follower is Canada, which can be said to be the only one in the United States.
But the premise of the United States alone is that it continues to suck Latin American blood.
To put it more shabby, the existence of Latin America is, to a certain extent, the back garden of the United States, and the United States absolutely does not allow and absolutely cannot create a superpower in the surrounding areas.
Therefore, a clever method of squeezing these countries in Latin America, most of which are very poor and weak, may not think about national development every day, but what to exchange for food tomorrow to fill their stomachs in order to survive.
It is precisely under such a dilemma that once the neighboring countries or some countries or some special regions on the other side of the Pacific give a little bit of goodness, it is possible to make them change their direction, after all, they are indeed poor.
Imagine that during the Cuban Missile Crisis, just because the Soviet Union arranged missiles in Cuba, the United States suddenly blew up its nest, and even did not hesitate to go to war directly with the Soviet Union.
A tough attitude directly deterred the Soviet Union, and in the end, both sides gave each other, and this matter was not resolved, and the tough attitude of the United States can be seen.
From another point of view, the safety of the back garden directly determines the domestic security of the United States, so these back gardens in the United States can survive, but they must not survive too moisturized.
On the surface, Taiwan's so-called gold dollar diplomacy can give these small countries short-term benefits, and after giving money, life can be slightly more generous, but it is a typical example of giving people fish, it is better to teach people to fish.
To be precise, the Taiwan authorities are not able to help each other solve practical problems and difficulties, but the trend of economic globalization is becoming more and more obvious.
Although at present, major countries led by the United States are engaged in the return of funds, and the development of globalization has also been hindered to a certain extent, globalization is an international trend, and even the United States is trapped in it.
China has the reputation of "the world's factory", can be described as a serious industrial power, in the industrial field of output is very strong, more importantly, in the past few years, we have been fair and fair business, our duty to do business, there has not been a big bully, shop big to cheat customers.
It not only follows international rules but also respects the will of countries, so more and more countries are willing to take China's free ride, including Honduras.
The game of big countries and the occupation of small countries.
From the perspective of the United States, provoking a thorn on the Taiwan issue has become one of the few effective means to curb the development of the mainland.
After all, in the past five years, the United States has been trying to bring down the mainland through financial warfare, but it has proved that our country has disguised itself too well.
The reason why it has been pricked by the United States in recent times is because even if the elephant hides again, there is no way to completely hide under a tree, and it is only a matter of time before it is exposed.
After five years of carrying it, the United States will naturally move in other directions, especially on the Taiwan Strait issue, and the mainland's strategic determination and strategic high and long eyeline have long anticipated this.
In the international situation, it is natural to get more friends and fewer enemies, and small countries like Honduras must be wooed, and as for those rogue countries with lions wide open, it does not matter if they are not wooed.
However, judging from the overall international trend, it is still more to woo than not to woo, because reducing the number of so-called countries with diplomatic relations provides extremely reliable preparations for the subsequent recovery of Taiwan, which needs to be persisted in for a long time.
But in the past business philosophy, these small countries did not have the measure and strength of a big country, nor did they have the vision of a big country, and more importantly, they just ran back and forth to survive.
Therefore, in the process of establishing diplomatic relations, there will inevitably be some drawbacks, but as long as these drawbacks can be controlled within a controllable range, even if there are really these drawbacks, there is nothing to fear.
Honduras owes a huge debt.
According to Honduran officials, Honduras owed more than $15 billion in debt in the past, which is divided into foreign debt and other debt.
The proportion of foreign debt is also more than half, domestic inflation is simply not optimistic, and the international situation has become extremely grim, and the fiscal side is very difficult.
More than $15 billion is not a lot of money, but to treat it differently, for a small country like Honduras, it is tantamount to a disaster.
According to Reina's relevant disclosures, Honduras is already in contact with the mainland to see if a common mechanism can be established to alleviate Honduras' debt problem.
And on the whole, Honduras' domestic development is also very difficult, about 70% of the country's people live below the poverty line, as for whether this time can help Honduras, or whether willing to help, is a very test of national wisdom.
