The Kawchu government continued to communicate with China, and even put forward a $6 billion proposal to China as soon as it took office last year.

"Obviously it's very disingenuous to walk on both sides"

The President of Honduras, Cafacchu, announced on Twitter last Tuesday that he would seek to establish diplomatic relations with China.

People familiar with the matter broke the news yesterday that Hongfang's attitude has fluctuated over the past year.

During the general election, Khawchu declared that he would establish diplomatic relations with China. After taking office, his attitude seemed to change. He also invited Vice President Lai Qingde to attend the inauguration ceremony. However, a few days after his inauguration, Hongfang contacted China and proposed large-scale infrastructure construction and other proposals, with an amount as high as 6 billion Dollar.

The two sides continued to interact through third places, international conferences and other occasions, and the Chinese side continued to win.

People familiar with the matter said that after the new government came to power in my country, it was necessary to negotiate a bilateral cooperation structure. Instead, Hongfang postponed the negotiation and directly demanded: 45 million US dollars to build a hospital, 300 million US dollars to build a dam, and 2 billion US dollars to buy Hongguo's national debt.

The person recalled that these requests are far beyond the scope of our country’s capabilities, but we still show our sincerity. High-level officials went to Hongguo to propose a moderate increase in the amount of bilateral cooperation, and promised to build hospitals and build dams with other countries. Honduras Four.

Eight or nine billion dollars in loans can also be adjusted.

But for our proposal, Foreign Minister Hong Leiner only dealt with it but did not follow through. "There is no need to seriously discuss it, as if you are traveling across the Taiwan Strait and selling to China."

People in the know were even more shocked. On the 13th, we received a letter from Reina to propose again (the letter was written on March 7) the day before Kawouchu tweeted, increasing the amount of the hospital plan to 9,000 million US dollars, the dam case III.

500 million U.S. dollars, and we are also required to undertake Hongguo's 2 billion U.S. dollars in debt.

While our side was still studying this letter, Kawouchu announced that he was seeking relations with China, which "seems to be premeditated, and may even be ordered by China at this point in time."

"Hongfang attaches great importance to the amount rather than the actual construction"

People familiar with the situation lamented that Foreign Minister Hong also made statements in the media that were inconsistent with the facts. For example, he said that Taiwan was unwilling to build a hospital. In fact, the Chimaltenango Hospital that my country assisted Gua has already been completed. "We made it clear to Honduras that we want to build a hospital like this, but they pay more attention to the money than the actual construction."

Has the diplomatic relationship with Hongguo come to an end?

The person said that the warning signs are quite clear, and it can be said that it has reached the final stage, but until the last moment of no hope, "we will continue to work hard."
