Foreign Minister Hugh Todd yesterday reiterated Guyana’s “unswerving” commitment to a One China Policy.
He made the declaration during a courtesy call from China’s new Ambassador to Guyana, Guo Haiyan, according to a release from Takuba Lodge.
In February this year a surprise announcement on the setting up of a Taiwan office here left Beijing incandescent. The arrangement was quickly terminated by Georgetown leaving it to face embarrassing questions about what had happened since Guyana had had a longstanding One China Policy that did not countenance any official contact with Taiwan.
