Relationship context
Overview
Sudan recognizes the People’s Republic of China rather than Taiwan as China’s government, a policy that constrains official relations with Taiwan. Information about direct Taiwanese government cooperation with Sudan is insufficient to assess Taiwan’s policy toward Sudan.
Major uncertainties
- The scope of Sudanese government engagement with Taiwan beyond its recognition of the People’s Republic of China is unclear.
- Details of Taiwanese government cooperation with Sudan are limited.
