Honduras Steps Away from US Coercion – Brian Berletic

The Central American nation of Honduras has announced it no longer recognizes the Republic of China on the island province of Taiwan, and instead now recognizes the People’s Republic of China in Beijing as the sole legitimate government of one China.

Honduras joins the vast majority of the world’s nations including even the US, UK, EU, Japan, and Australia;

The UN also recognizes Taiwan as a province of China and the PRC as the sole legitimate government of China;

Even the ROC’s own constitution recognizes Taiwan is an island province of China, and simply claims the ROC is the sole legitimate government over the entirety of China;

Only through US military and political support does the ROC on Taiwan maintain the illusion of “autonomy,” and this US-sponsored separatism is at the root of US-Chinese tensions;

Were the ROC to declare the island province of Taiwan “independent,” its economy would immediately collapse and would exist solely to host US troops menacing China ahead of major war;
