Last month, El Salvador announced the establishment of diplomatic relations with China after breaking official ties with Taiwan, becoming the third country to do so in the past few months.
Previously, the Dominican Republic broke away from Taipei and establish diplomatic relations with mainland China. In April, the signing ceremony of an official communique on the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the Dominican Republic was held.
Previous year, Panama and China have established official diplomatic relations as the Central American country had broken ties with Taiwan.
