Relationship context
Overview
Rwanda follows the One China policy and recognizes the government of the People’s Republic of China rather than Taiwan. This policy constrains Rwanda’s official engagement with Taiwan. Information about Taiwan’s government conduct specifically toward Rwanda is insufficient to assess that relationship.
Major uncertainties
- The scope of Rwanda’s official policy toward Taiwan beyond its recognition of the People’s Republic of China is unclear.
- Details of Taiwan’s government cooperation with Rwanda are limited.
