I believe that Nicaragua has revealed ( unknowingly) that they WILL be cutting ties with Taiwan and getting HUGE deals with China. Here is why..... Last year, Taiwan offered to invest in several infrastructure projects in Nicaragua.... a highway and building a port in Bluefields. Here we are, a year later and Taiwan has NOT gotten the go ahead on the projects by Nicaragua. A year later, and no commitment of support by Nicaragua, we have three Taiwan Battle ship, with 800 military men, park in Nicaragua. I believe that Nicaragua will throw Taiwan under the bus and get "THE DEAL OF THE CENTURY" with China.
