Taiwan is losing one of its few remaining diplomatic allies following the election of ruling party candidate Lai Ching-te in Saturday's presidential election. The government of Nauru, a small island state northeast of Australia, says it will no longer recognize Taiwan as a separate country but as part of China's territory.
Beijing welcomed Nauru's diplomatic switch in favor of China. Beijing claims Taiwan as its own territory. The Nauru flag was removed from the diplomatic quarter in Taiwan, just days after the election of a new President.
