*Submission Statement:* Kitsch Liao, Nik Foster, and Santiago Villa of the Atlantic Council assess Taiwan’s diplomatic challenges as China seeks to isolate the island. The authors provide a history of China (PRC) and Taiwan (ROC) before delving into the coercion and enticement leveled at Taiwan’s diplomatic partners. Four case studies, Palau, St. Lucia, Honduras and the Dominican Republic, illuminate Beijing’s tactics as well as China’s failure to live up to promises after convincing some of these nations to switch recognition. The report further examines how Taiwan’s remaining partners, especially in the Pacific Islands and Latin America, contribute to regional stability and how the U.S. and allies can help maintain this critical diplomatic support.
