Unida Nicaragua Triunfa
DECLARATION BY THE GOVERNMENT OF NICARAGUA AT THE JOINT PRESS CONFERENCE
WITH COMRADE MA ZHAOXU VICE CHANCELLOR OF THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA
Today is a historic date. The reestablishment of diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China, fully corresponds to the will and fundamental interests of the Nicaraguan People.
Nicaragua recognizes the One-China Principle and recognizes that the Government of the People's Republic of China is the only legitimate government that represents all of China and Taiwan is an inalienable part of the Chinese territory.
Nicaragua has already broken the supposed diplomatic relations with Taiwan and will no longer have any official relationship or contact with Taiwan.
Nicaragua admires the extraordinary success that China has obtained in development, highly values the important position that China occupies on the international stage and supports the initiative for global development proposed by China.
Nicaragua is willing to take active part in the construction of the Belt and Road.
Nicaragua is expecting to carry out operations with China in the political, economic, social and cultural fields, among others, with a view to promoting national development, the relations between China and Latin America and the Caribbean, as well as South-South cooperation.
Thank You
Presidential Advisor
