Relationship context
Overview
Mozambique recognizes the People’s Republic of China rather than Taiwan as a state, reflecting a policy that limits official government relations with Taiwan. Information about Taiwan’s direct government cooperation with Mozambique is insufficient to assess its approach.
Major uncertainties
- The scope of any informal or practical contact between the governments is unclear.
- Details of Taiwan’s government cooperation with Mozambique are limited.
