Relationship context
Overview
Brazil recognizes the People’s Republic of China under a one-China policy and does not maintain formal diplomatic relations with Taiwan. This limits official government relations, but does not by itself indicate sustained hostility. Information about Taiwan’s government conduct toward Brazil and the scope of bilateral cooperation is insufficient for a reciprocal assessment.
Areas of tension
- Taiwan’s international status and Brazil’s recognition of the People’s Republic of China
Major uncertainties
- The scope and substance of unofficial government-to-government cooperation are unclear.
- Details of Taiwan’s government policy and conduct toward Brazil are limited.
