In an announcement made on Monday during a bilateral investment conference, Paraguayan President Santiago Pena revealed that his country is preparing to welcome Taiwan's President Lai Ching-te in 30 days.
This visit underscores Paraguay's unique diplomatic position, as it is the only South American nation among 12 globally to hold formal ties with Taiwan, a self-governed island claimed by China.
The Taiwanese foreign ministry has not yet provided a statement regarding the planned visit, leaving room for speculation on the potential diplomatic implications.
