taiwan is something that does not belong to china, but i let me remind you that both mauttung and chiang kai-shek, when chiang kai-shek took away his kuomintang government and they went to taiwan, they both considered taiwan an integral part of china, of course, thank you, sorry, mr. igor, well, in short, we understood that i well, such a controversy, some believe that there may be a war, and some believe that it is unlikely to happen, but i want to thank you, sorry, we will definitely return, china will not disappear from the world map anywhere, so with ihor lytvyn, the extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador of ukraine to the people's republic of china 99- 2001 , co-chairman of the ukrainian chinese business council, we will definitely meet again, i just want to remind the audience that what can stop such an embrace of taiwan in the direction of... china is the indisputable destiny of hong kong, which was also promised that you will have a separate, a separate arrangement, everything will be fine, you will have it as per the british one empire, and we don't climb up to you, well, now we climb

example, you know i read really extensively the conversations that the united states had with chiang kai shek and other members of, the u.s. government in the late forties after chiang kai-shek and a small group of his supporters had moved to the island of taiwan and the united states had very difficult conversation with him in this period about the need to get not only sort of foreign policy and what we would consider, you know, his relationship with the united states, but also really the to much better manage the governance of taiwan itself. and as the last remaining sort of territory that the kmt controlled and that had massive effect on how chiang kai govern. so subsequently taiwan and the book looks really at some of the effects of that shift in policy that that chiang in the kmt pursued over the course of the 1950s. and so the that i use that example and that i stress that i could go through similar examples from south korea and from the philippines as well over the course of the fifties, the sixties, the seventies and the eighties, those countries became democracies. but just to emphas

security council, i protest against the presence of representatives of chiang kai-shek on behalf of china that a man from otzedun come, but this one... it happened then, we remember the circumstances of this war, they are very curious, macarthur took command, but when it was almost the north koreans threw south korea into the sea, he freed not only xiu, but pykinyang and reached the korean-chinese border, after which the chinese simply threw a horde of two million chinese volunteers, so-called, macarthur said that he was the only way to use this artillery. nuclear weapons against which president truman categorically objected, well , as a result, the war ended in poverty, i just illustrated this illustration, it has some relevance to our current situation in ukraine, very razdyvaetsya, as if sharper, here is an economist who wrote yesterday, an economist, very hostile to the ukrainian magazine, the fiercest struggle between zauzhny and zelensky, i will tell you, the history of all world wars teaches that there are always very difficult relations between the political leadership and the mil

of the anti-dlater coalition, but you can take a closer look, churchill, roosevelt, stalin and chiang kai-shek and mussolini is already defeated, we see him lying, here chiangkaisha is pierced by the spear of the prime minister of japan and hideki tadzeo, here, and stalin is already striking. unknown facts about the crimes of the nazis and their accomplices, especially ukrainian and baltic nationalists, against civilians, all this can also be seen at the exhibition, which, among other things, allows you to learn about the new turn in the relations between the soviet government and the russian orthodox church, which happened just in this time. many churches are opened, theological courses are opened, and publishing begins. and sections devoted to the work of soviet intelligence or, for example, partisan movement, in general, you can talk about its exhibits for a long time, but this is the very case when it is better to come once to see everything with your own eyes, especially since for the first time, within the framework of one exhibition , everything that happened in this really a turning po

and chiang kai-shek the novel role of china is no hell. he is too busy fighting rebel against in central china. so the kwantung army keeps pushing ahead. there is no effective obstacle in its path. within days it further defies the civilian government, the general staff for occupying a town that is 225 miles northeast of mukden. and two days after that the kwantung army decides to set up and independent manchurian regency, a kind of puppet regent who would have some local authority. this is the so-called last emperor if you've ever seen the movie, the last of the manchu dynasty with a delightful name of henry who use. but japan would dominate this new regime. it would control the defense of the country. it would control the foreign policy of the country. it could control the transportation, the communication. the country would have its own name. it would have its own currency, its own postage, it would have its own bureaucracy. but every manchu official had a japanese advisor at this advisor made the real decisions. and many japanese see m

this one with chiang kai shek, chinese nationalist representative. as this scene is being enacted, stalin is secretly supporting communist leader mao tse-tung soviet diplomacy. meanwhile, united states ambassador george c marshall attempts to restore peace in china and negotiate a truce between the nationalist government forces represented by general chiang chun and, the communist guerrillas represented by general lai paper promises and the reds gain valuable time to strengthen their forces when leaves, they resume the war on a vastly larger scale by. the end of 1949, china falls to the rebels. another 700 million people under communist control control. lenin once said, we shall reach paris by way of peking during this time 1945 to 49, stalin has been beating the propaganda drums for disarmament. but his true policy is revealed in instructions given by the communist international apparatus. the disarmament policy of the soviet government must utilized to support the only toward abolition of war. arming the communists, overthrowing the capitalists, an

that is, the offshore island in the in the pacific, to which chiang kai shek had led the retreat, the defeated and retreating nationalist chinese. at the end, the chinese revolution in 1949, when on the few occasions when an american needed to talk to a chinese diplomat, they met in warsaw behind the iron curtain and had informal talks. but by 70 and 71, nixon was thinking, there's something extremely odd about this situation. in fact, nixon had written an article in the journal foreign affairs, which was published in 1967, in which he said, taking the long view, we simply cannot afford to leave china forever. outside the family of nations there to nurture its fantasies, cherish its hates and threaten its neighbors. by 1969, 1970, it was also becoming clear that communism was not monolithic. in words, there were differences between russian communists and chinese communists, and differences again between and vietnamese communists, and that it was possible to see a little bit of daylight between these various brands of national communism. and of course, one of the central principles of
