Guatemalan President Alejandro Giammattei said Tuesday that his nation would maintain a “solid diplomatic relationship” with Taiwan despite communist China’s military threats against the self-ruled island.

Giammattei arrived in Taiwan for a four-day visit on Tuesday, which he said would serve as a message “about respect for the independence of nations” while reaffirming his country’s strong support for the island.
