 Kathmandu, Jan. 4

Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA), Lok Bahadur Poudel Chhetri reiterated Nepal’s firm commitment to the ‘One China Principle’ and stated that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China’s territory.

In response to media queries amidst the escalating tensions in the East China Sea region, he said so while referring to the close neighbourly relations between the two countries, based on the strong foundations of 'Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence'.

The MoFA also said that Nepal and the People’s Republic of China successfully concluded a series of celebrations marking the 70th anniversary of their diplomatic relations in 2025 through the organisation of various events in both countries.

Last week, the Embassy China in Kathmandu also organised a ceremony to mark the conclusion of the anniversary where various cultural and art exhibitions were held.
