On December 9, the Daniel Ortega’s regime restored relations with mainland China, after consequently breaking relations with Taiwan, which is an island that China claims as part of its territory.

Three days after Nicaragua recognized that “there is only one China in the world” and that “Taiwan is an inalienable part of Chinese territory,” the Asian giant began to deliver donations of vaccines.

The first load of 200 thousand doses of the Sinopharm vaccine arrived last December 12 “As part of the beginning of the strengthening of fraternal relations” between both nations.
