Hey fam, major diplomatic vibes coming from the Caribbean! 🌴 In the latest Leaders Talk episode, aired this month, Dominica’s President Sylvanie Burton 💬 doubled down on her country’s unwavering support for the one-China principle.
During the chat, Burton stressed there’s only one China and that national reunification across the Taiwan Strait is inevitable. She even pitched Dominica as a model for other Caribbean nations to follow, urging countries without formal ties with China to jump in for shared growth and a stronger regional voice.
