news agency SCMP Report information on the full opportunity 50 year at the US Started diplomatic relations with China half a century ago Did it meet the goals set by former President Nixon??
—opening the way for ties with the United States–China—
International Relations in Modern History Few movements have affected the balance of world power. one of them is visit to China on 21 February year 1972 of President Richard Nixon of the United States
US travel to establish official diplomatic ties with the People’s Republic of China Based on new geopolitical calculations which challenges the US
“It will be a safer and better world. If we have the US, Europe, soviet union, China and Japan strong which each side creates a balance for each other” Richard Nixon US President in those days give an interview to the magazine Time last year 1972 by talking about a trip to China
such opinion It signals a departure from the ideas that dominate US foreign policy. that is domino theory which states that If a country is a communist Nearby countries will also become communists.
according to the theory United States has signed many treaties including the Ansas Treaty (ANZUS) with New Zealand and Australia in the year 1951 and the US Security Treaty–Japan a year later
adherence to this theory So saw communism moving from the Soviet Union. to china and Vietnam which led the United States Entering the Civil War in Southeast Asian Countries and causing President Nixon to change his role again
—United States build relationship with china Hope to stop Russia—
amid the social turmoil in the country and desperate to find a way out of the conflict to avoid the effects of the domino theory. which will end the expansion of US influence in asia Nixon knows Diplomatic relations with mainland China It could be a new collateral.
Nixon looks at Diplomatic ties with Chairman Mao may cause the United States influence over the former Soviet Union (Russia) and break the geopolitical stalemate with Russia that makes the United States Disappointed for over two decades
Nixon took time to work with Henry. Kissinger National Security Advisor and others other among policy makers to get a conclusion on the aforementioned issues
He had to abandon foreign policy wisdom, which was too biased against China. This view made the talks with Beijing viewed as It’s just exacerbating the problem.
The difference between China and the US that cuts deep Until American diplomats try to inform their Chinese counterparts of Nixon’s intentions to open the negotiating table. in the middle of the fashion show Yugoslav in warsaw at the end of the year 1969 Which was an awkward exchange and failed.
“We have been enemies for longer. 22 year The Americans were fiercely anti-communist and pro-Taiwan.” Winston lord National Security Assistant speaking with Kissinger which is tasked with creating opportunities for a high-level meeting between the United States–China
“many other people feel The Chinese are more extreme than the Soviets. This is also a sensitive issue for the Chinese side.”
—The changing relationship of the three superpowers—
Russia needs a lot of soldiers. deployed along the borders of China starting from the beginning of the year 1969 to reinforce the wall that policy makers of both sides Built after Mao proclaimed the founding of the People’s Republic of China in the year. 1946
After the clash on the Chinese border–soviet start Kissinger is reluctant to engage in diplomatic engagement with China. due to US relations–The Soviets began to relax. and as an opportunity for negotiations to limit strategic weapons (SALT I) but he other leaning towards the counterbalance of Soviet aggression through diplomacy with China
As Kissinger stated in his own book. A detailed intelligence study on “The relentless formation of the Soviet along the Chinese border 6,440 kilometer” prove that The nature of the clashes at the Moscow border It was through several briefings that the Soviets sent diplomats to the United States. that distort the situation
Kissinger said “When US intelligence agencies getting stronger Knowing that the clashes often took place near the main Soviet military bases. and far from the communication center of China. which is a pattern indicating that the soviet aggressor”
on that time United States has passed a period of generosity with Russia on the Chinese side that felt He was despised and abandoned by his former allies. Such resentment prompted Mao to resist what he viewed as an invasion of the Soviet Union. And that could eventually lead to a nuclear attack. China’s nascent nuclear arsenal is not yet ready to halt nuclear war.
—America goes to China via Pakistan—
“back then Mao Zedong See the Soviet Union as a serious threat and imperialism.” Shi yin hong Professor of International Relations Renmin University say
“When deciding to withdraw from the Vietnam War if the US not easing tensions with Beijing China will be able to fill the gap in Southeast Asia and gain power over the region.”
after the US Failed to reach Chinese partners through third parties. in the UK France and Romania Thus creating a path to a new era of relations between the United States. with china through pakistan which is a country that has friendly relations with both countries and has little involvement with Russia.
Akha messages Hilaly Pakistan Ambassador to Washington Addresses Kissinger in december 1969 is “We estimate that The Chinese are willing to resume negotiations. at the ambassador level without adhering to prerequisites”
The engagement began to settle and lasted for years. until it was decided US delegation must travel to China to find a way to overcome China’s most pressing concerns. that is Taiwan
as Winston lord described in the hearsay history published in the year 2003 “Chinese first ‘to the US send people to mainland China and have to solve problems in Taiwan first China to begin the next step.’ ”
—“Taiwan” US key—
Kissinger and Lord go on a secret journey. other to beijing in year 1971 and finally a joint manifesto China–United States or Shanghai Communique The document, which was signed while Nixon was in Beijing. before different events other to help transform Mao’s poor and chaotic country. to become an economic giant
Robert Delhi Director of the Kissinger Institute of China and the United States at the Wilson Center Washington Thought Agency said declaration which acknowledged each side’s position on the status of Taiwan is “key that unlocks a dead end”
such agreement has determined “one china policy” with a commitment to the United States adhere to and adhere to the principles “one china” and Taiwan is part of China. which was signed by Nixon and distributed worldwide. China will have an advantage when the US Abandon the One China Policy
official diplomatic change take longer 7 year will be complete from what the Lord called “domestic political restrictions” of both sides That commitment has been cited over and over again over the decades. to prevent bilateral tensions from turning into hostile acts. and help China–United States abandon conflicting ideas
—Maintain diplomatic balance between nations—
“We’re not trying to pretend. There was no significant difference between the two governments. because it exists This statement is unique in that it expresses its distinction. Instead of trying to hide diplomatic information” As Nixon describes in the archives.
ren crony Director of the Center for Foreign Policy of China Fudan University Call this statement “very strange document” because it emphasizes the policy ideology and different standpoints
“We’ve never seen a joint document between countries like this.” he said “usually The document will state what is mutually agreed upon. instead of what was not agreed upon”
When both nations agree to this agreement A new bilateral relationship began to flourish. leading to further negotiations 2 time including the establishment of official diplomatic certification and expanding economic relations The latter is widely supported.
this understanding survived the Taiwanese attack on the US after the US Passed the Taiwan Relations Act 1979 which allows the US government Support the defense capabilities of this island.
—Walk the game against mainland China’s power—
50 Years after Nixon and Mao meeting US Leader 2 person is President Joe Biden and former President Donald trump the former leader They support contact with Taiwan. until prompting China to send fighter jets into Taiwan’s air defense zone and warned that Such problems could lead to military conflicts.
David Firestein President of the George Foundation H. W. Bush for US relations–China said “Questions on the Chinese Joint Declaration–United States year 1972 never mention is Which side is right and is Taiwan really part of China?”
Firestein said As long as the United States There is still an embassy in Beijing. and avoid official diplomatic representations of Taiwan. United States can interpret the One China policy “as you see fit” can
“It is the duty of China to decide whether like the way the US Deal with Taiwan? And China can retaliate as it sees fit.” he added
“But if the US Congress Deem it appropriate to pass the Taiwan Tourism Act. or the management deems it appropriate to sell weapons to Taiwan It is a right of the United States. to do so as well”
—bond “dull color”—
As for human rights issues The Trump administration and Biden have boycotted Chinese officials. in response to allegations of genocide of Xinjiang Uighurs and other Muslim minorities. other, South China Sea dispute including the policy of imprisonment of those who disagree and cracking down on political opposition in Hong Kong.
Both sides are stuck in a cycle of mutual opposition. leading to what Kissinger called “foothills of the cold war” in the year 2019
China ignores international calls on Hong Kong issue Instead, reiterated their opinion that the China Joint Declaration–english year 1984 will no longer be effective.
However Instead of pushing for high-level military talks with China. Trump and Biden instead try to form an anti-China alliance. which includes Quad and Aukus similar to founding Anzus and other security treaties other during the decade 1950
Robert Dali said Kissinger’s assessment was just two years ago. both sides are “halfway before the peak” of the cold war mountains
—US domination game–China–Russia—
relationship between china Russia and the United States has become an important factor in relations between the United States–china again which this time is back to last time
Russia deploys troops on the Ukrainian border This caused a serious warning from Biden. which this month the United States send troops to Eastern Europe to support NATO China signaled support for the president. Vladimir Putin of Russia in the UN Security Council vote
Putin and color Jinping said at a meeting during the Winter Olympics in Beijing. by both parties using the meeting signaled a coordinated effort to counter the US
However Hostility defines almost every aspect of US relations. and china the one who receives the most economic benefits like a company Boeing aircraft engine manufacturer American nationality and farmers who rely on Chinese buyers of soybeans and beef. So it seemed like the only hope for the relationship to return to the path Nixon had set.
“even range 4 years in the trade war We also offer two-way trade. worth more 6 one hundred billion US dollars It is one of the largest and most consequential bilateral trade relations in the world. I think it will continue to last.” Firestein say
“We are at a time of national scrutiny that The most persistent bilateral relationship in the world which direction to go” he say “We cannot turn China into the will of the United States. can This may disappoint many Americans.”
“but that’s the truth And it’s something that people are starting to understand more.” Firestein say
