Honduras has opened an embassy in Beijing months after breaking off relations with Taiwan to establish diplomatic ties with China. The inauguration was attended by China’s Foreign Minister Qin Gang and his Honduran counterpart Enrique Reina. Honduras established formal relations with China in March, becoming the latest in a string of countries to break diplomatic ties with Taiwan. China prohibits its own diplomatic partners from having formal ties with Taipei. The move is a diplomatic victory for China amid heightened tensions between Beijing and the United States and signals China’s growing influence in Latin America.
