History
Uruguay used to have bilateral relations with the Republic of China; these were broken up when the People's Republic of China established diplomatic relations with Uruguay in 1988.[4]
The presence of Chinese immigrants in Uruguay is relatively small but significant.
There are several agreements between both countries:
- Mutual investment promotion and protection agreement (1993) (in Spanish)
- Scientific and technological cooperation agreement (1993) (in Spanish)
- Preferential loan (2006) (in Spanish)
There is also a Uruguay-PRC Chamber of Commerce in Montevideo.[5]
China is Uruguay's number one trading partner.[6]
In May 2013, the Uruguayan President José Mujica made an official visit to Beijing.[7]
