[Reporter Huang Jingying/Taipei Report] Honduras broke off diplomatic relations with Taiwan today. The People’s Party said today that it regrets the 82-year-long severance of friendship between Honduras and the Republic of China, and condemned China for oppressing Taiwan’s international relations. The act of living space, which is not conducive to cross-strait relations, will increase the confrontation and conflict between the people, and cause the waste of limited resources of the governments of both sides. We call for a window of communication to be opened to solve cross-strait issues pragmatically.

The People's Party stated that my country's diplomacy is in a difficult situation. Maintaining relations with allied countries is the unremitting goal of our diplomats. Providing reasonable financial assistance, carrying out economic and trade investment, achieving the most effective and mutually beneficial exchanges, and ensuring the relationship between the two countries should be the duty-bound tasks of the government and foreign departments.

The People's Party pointed out that since President Tsai Ing-wen took office, my country has lost 9 diplomatic relations with the country, and the relationship with Paraguay may also change in the near future.

The People's Party suggests that future aid plans for countries with diplomatic relations should cooperate with neighboring countries and provide assistance in accordance with the practices of advanced countries. And actively seek to make friends with countries with similar ideas through ideas such as democracy and freedom, so as to avoid being trapped in the money arena. Taiwan should also uphold a "central, pragmatic, and flexible" diplomatic strategy, actively carry out international dialogue and cooperation, and seek international Maximize living space.
