Around 1999, the tense relations between the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and NATO attracted the attention of the world. China and other sovereign countries quickly realized that a conflict might occur, and immediately organized the evacuation of overseas Chinese, and in order to expose the truth about the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and NATO, they retained some embassy staff and war correspondents.
Despite the caution of our country, on the evening of May 17, NATO warplanes suddenly appeared in the sky above the Chinese embassy and dropped shells, resulting in a large number of **. The embassy is regarded as its own territory internationally, and this act of the United States has aroused strong anger among Chinese people at home and abroad.
The U.S. contacted China after the outbreak to apologize and promise the results of the investigation. However, the investigation said that the pilot had "taken the wrong map", causing distrust. Why did our country choose to negotiate peace with the United States rather than go to war?
At that time, China was facing a critical moment of international integration, the collapse of the Soviet Union and the rise of the United States, and choosing to confront the United States would pay a heavy price. The economic and military disparity makes it unwise to engage in a head-on conflict with the United States. After receiving a paper apology from the United States, China realized that its lack of strength led to the arrogant attitude of the other side.
China has decided to develop its strength in a harmonious and stable environment and has successfully hitched a ride on the international community. Today, China is an existence that cannot be ignored in the world, showing the wisdom of "it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years".
