Paraguay expels Chinese envoy over Taiwan 'interference'
ReutersDEC 1 2024
It's utterly despicable that a Chinese diplomat used a UNESCO meeting as a pretext to infiltrate Paraguay and try to persuade the country to switch its recognition from Taiwan to the PRC. Whether Beijing likes it or not, the long-standing diplomatic relations between Paraguay and Taiwan are stronger now than ever.
That the island of Taiwan is an integral part of the Chinese territory has long been consensus in the international community. Xu Wei was perfectly within his rights to reaffirm and uphold the one-China principle, so allegations and demands against him are serious violations of international norms.
