Honduras's incoming government will maintain ties with U.S.-ally Taiwan, two members of the transition team told Reuters on Friday, a day after Nicaragua switched allegiances to re-establish ties with China.

However, one of the team members, Rodolfo Pastor, kept open the possibility that Honduras would recognize China in the future, calling it a new super power and saying the Central American country was studying the matter.
