After the end of World War II, Soviet troops were stationed in the northeast region for a long time and even established military bases, which seriously violated China's sovereignty and dignity. It was not until the Kuomintang recognized the contents of the Yalta Conference that Soviet troops reluctantly withdrew.
This incident has deeply pained and dissatisfied the Chinese people, and has also reminded us to always be vigilant against foreign aggression against China's territory and sovereignty.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Soviet Union became the first country to establish diplomatic relations with China. In the early days of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, the Soviet Union undertook most of the preliminary design work and equipment manufacturing of the aid projects, while the rest was completed by Soviet experts with the assistance of Chinese enterprises.
Many Soviet scientists, engineers and technicians took an active part in the construction of these industrial projects, and some even directly moved the drawings and equipment of entire factories from the USSR.
Under the careful guidance of Soviet specialists, China's total industrial output increased by 128 in 1957 compared to 19526%, with an average annual growth rate of 19%.
The Soviet Union's assistance to China led to the brilliant success of China's first five-year plan, which succeeded in building thousands of factories and mines. As the largest socialist country in the world at the time, the Soviet Union realized that the security of its capital, Moscow, would also be threatened if the surrounding environment in Asia was unstable.
Therefore, the USSR decided to take measures to change the situation. Towards the end of World War II, the Soviet Union, the United States, and Great Britain held a secret meeting and decided to suppress each other by improving their international standing.
They have used local wars in other countries to achieve this goal, such as the turmoil in the Middle East and the Korean War. During this period, the United States and the Soviet Union both hoped to change the situation of "one mountain and two tigers" by enhancing their international status.
They actively seek out opportunities and use different ways to achieve their goals.
After the Yalta Conference, the Korean Peninsula was divided into two parts, the north and the south, and both sides hoped to achieve national reunification by force. On April 10, 1950, Stalin and Kim Il Sung met for an in-depth discussion of plans to invade Korea.
In mid-May, Kim Il Sung made a secret visit to China and informed *** of his intentions to attack South Korea. However, ** argues that the time is not yet ripe and opposes this.
However, this did not prevent the Korean People's Army from launching an offensive on 25 June 1950.
After the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, the United States began to realize that it did not have enough control over the Asian region and began to look for countries that could serve as allies. In the end, the United States chose Japan and began to resume the development of its military industry in order to turn it into an arsenal for the Korean theater.
So why did the United States choose Japan as an ally?First of all, because Japan has a strong industrial base, which the United States can control without much assistance. Secondly, the Soviet Union began to invest in China in an all-round way, including technology, equipment and capital, which led to the rapid rise of China's heavy industry and laid the foundation for future development.
In the Asian region, Japan's economic development has always been among the highest. If the support of the United States is added, the presence of Japan will have an impact on the Soviet Union. With this in mind, the USSR decided to help China develop heavy industry.
Why did the Soviet Union help New China so much?One of the reasons is because the Soviet Union was able to assist China in the first place, because of one of the Soviet Union's leaders.
At a meeting of the presidium, Khrushchev said that if China asks for help on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, we should seize this important historical moment and support China's industrial development in the next five years, which will help us establish diplomatic relations with China and consolidate our friendship.
Sino-Soviet relations reached their peak in 1954 when Khrushchev visited China, announced that he would continue to assist China in 15 construction projects, and abolished some of the unequal treaties of the Stalin era.
However, Khrushchev later announced that he would withdraw all Soviet aid to China, including funds, technology and experts, and used this as a threat to demand that China give up its aid in atomic bomb research.
Although Khrushchev expected *** to take the initiative to seek help from the Soviet Union, *** did not say anything. Despite this, Khrushchev did not give up.
China successfully launched its first atomic bomb on July 16, 1960, but the Soviet Union then withdrew all experts, funds, and equipment, causing relations between the two countries to deteriorate.
The actions of the Soviet Union were not ill-intentioned, because during World War II, they directly invaded the Northeast and defeated the Japanese puppet **, but when they retreated, they blew up the industrial base of the Northeast and did not leave even a single screw.
The deterioration of Sino-Soviet relations was due to the struggle between national interests.
