Taiwan says it cherishes ties with Honduras

Taiwan cherishes its ties with Honduras, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs affirmed after the Central American ally's president said it may be interested in establishing formal ties with China.

"If our allies want to develop trade and commercial relations with China, the ROC [Taiwanese] government will not oppose it, but it does not wish to see allies taking actions that could undermine our bilateral friendship," ministry spokesman Steve Hsia said.

Hsia was responding to reports citing a statement by Honduras' presidential office Wednesday.
