BEIJING - China has agreed to pay for a new national stadium and library in El Salvador as part of an infrastructure package promised to the country after it switched allegiance from Taiwan to Beijing.

The two countries issued a joint statement saying Beijing would also pay for the construction of two water supply projects, as well as the"reconstruction and expansion" of the"Surf City" tourism area and La Libertad pier along El Salvador's coastline. But Mr Bukele said in another series of tweets on Wednesday that"some opponents" had tried to attack the deals signed with China,"alleging that it is a 'debt trap.'"El Salvador recognised Beijing in August 2018, becoming the third country to abandon Taiwan that year, following the Dominican Republic and Burkina Faso.
