However, New Delhi has contradicted the declare by Taiwan’s Foreign Minister Joseph Wu that India shipped one lakh doses on its request and can once more ship the same amount to Paraguay. “I would like to confirm that no third party was involved,” stated Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Arindam Bagchi.
According to Wu, China was pressuring the Latin American nation to just accept urgently-required vaccine doses provided that it ended diplomatic recognition of Taiwan.
But Bagchi stated India was opening an Embassy in Paraguay and through a dialog between the Foreign Ministers, the demand for vaccines was raised. Accordingly, India despatched one lakh doses of vaccines to Paraguay, he added. Taiwan’s Foreign Minister stated, “In the last few weeks, we have been speaking to like-minded countries and India fortunately has been able to provide some vaccines to Paraguay.”
The authorities in Paraguay had wanted pressing assist as there had been road protests over its dealing with of the well being disaster. India had despatched the one lakh doses on March 26 as “gift”.
“The most important trend is the Indian government who is willing to help and the US who has decided they want to help. I think this is going to relieve a lot of pressure for a lot of countries,” he stated.
