Even before the United States entered World War II in December 1941, America sent arms and equipment to the Soviet Union to help it defeat the Nazi invasion. Totaling $11.3 billion, or $180 billion in today’s currency, the Lend-Lease Act of the United States supplied needed goods to the Soviet Union from 1941 to 1945 in support of what Stalin described to Roosevelt as the “enormous and difficult fight against the common enemy — bloodthirsty Hitlerism.”

Joint Communiqué on the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations
The second communiqué (January 1, 1979), the Joint Communiqué on the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations, formally announces the commencement of normal relations between the United States and the People's Republic of China. In so doing, the United States recognized that the government of the People's Republic of China was the sole legal government of China, and acknowledged the PRC's position that Taiwan is part of China.[2] In addition, the United States government declared that it would end formal political relations with the Republic of China ("Taiwan") while preserving economic and cultural ties. Both sides reaffirmed their wish to reduce the risk of international conflict as well as avoidance of hegemony of any nation in the Asia-Pacific region
Shanghai Communiqué The first communiqué (February 28, 1972), known as the Shanghai Communiqué, summarizes the landmark dialogue begun by President Richard Nixon and Premier Zhou Enlai during February 1972. Some of the issues addressed in this communiqué include the two sides' views on Vietnam, the Korean Peninsula, India and Pakistan and the Kashmir region, and perhaps most importantly, the Taiwan (Republic of China) issue (i.e., Taiwan's political status). Essentially, both sides agreed to respect each other's national sovereignty and territorial integrity. The United States formally acknowledged that "all Chinese on either side of the Taiwan Strait maintain there is but one China".
The 1992 Consensus was rejected by the current leader of Taiwan, Tsai Ing-wen, who associated it with one country, two systems in a 2019 speech.
So now who is trying to change the status quo?
The 1992 Consensus is a political term referring to the alleged outcome of a meeting in 1992 between the semiofficial representatives of the People's Republic of China (PRC) of mainland China and the Republic of China (ROC) of Taiwan. They are often credited as creating a diplomatic basis for semi-official cross-strait exchanges which began in the early 1990s and is a precondition set by the PRC for engaging in cross-strait dialogue.
Talk so much to this banana man is no use because he is a US running dog/pro Taiwan independent/member/pro Hongkong independent. Our appearance here is just to let other ppl know of his toxic propaganda against China.
Bananas, yellow on the outside and white on the inside. This fruit is often a cheeky way some Asian-Canadians/Americans describe themselves when they have been assimilated into the Canadian/Americans culture, and find themselves caught between the stereotypes of two identities.
But in China content, it refer to those who speak and write in Chinese but think whiteman is superior and whiteman can do no wrong/harm.
Who wants war? Surely not China as time is on China side. The neo con project is to maintain American hegemony against the rise of China. They know time is not on their side
Their excuse as always is about democracy Vs communists, human rights etc etc ....and a very compliant media.
American media....still don't know their true colours meh? HK black shirts, Xinjiang, Tibet, Tibet, previously Vietnam, Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Latin America
Just last few days, us air force flew over south China sea with CNN, and accuse pla air force of provocations......who provoke who in South China sea? U think it is near US waters meh?
During old cold war time, it is democracy Vs USSR communists and in order to contain USSR, US switch support to PRC result in UN resolution 2758, passed on 25 October 1971, recognized the People's Republic of China (PRC) as "the only legitimate representative of China to the United Nations" and removed "the representatives of Chiang Kai-shek" (referring to Republic of China (ROC)) from the United Nations.
After USSR breakdown and the 1993 constitution declares Russia a democratic, federative, law-based state with a republican form of government. State power is divided among the legislative, executive, and judicial branches.
Now US is waging propaganda war on Democracy against Autocracy.
Western world are now more on propaganda war rather than sincere on Of the People, By the People, For the People.
GT investigates: US war-mongering under guise of ‘democracy’ inflicts untold damage on the world Unholy wars By GT staff reporters Published: Dec 01, 2021 10:37 PM
How many evils have been committed in the name of democracy?
Exporting wars, launching "color revolutions," fomenting extremist ideologies, and promoting economic instability...the US has left countless trails of bloodshed and turmoil around the world. While the "model of democracy" loses its shine, the US still attempts to establish exclusive cliques through the so-called democracy summit. To expose the nature of "American democracy," the Global Times is publishing a series of stories to unveil the US' four democratic hegemony sins. This is the first piece.
"War is the American way of life," said US historian Paul Atwood, noting that the US was born, grew, and became a superpower out of war, slavery, and human slaughter.
In its more than 240-year-long history since declaring independence on July 4, 1776, there have only been 16 years in which the US was not at war. From the end of World War II (WWII) to 2001, the US has initiated 201 of the 248 armed conflicts in 153 locations, accounting for over 80 percent of total wars fought. Since 2001, wars and military operations by the US have claimed more than 800,000 lives and displaced tens of millions of people.
Experts and observers reached by the Global Times said that the US, ignoring the objective reality of its own shambolic democratic record, instead attempts to use "democracy" as a pretext to wage war and as a cover for its numerous crimes such as causing humanitarian disasters and destroying sovereign order, is the real culprit threatening the world.
sslee, this is exactly the problem of pro-china people. When they cannot answer a question, they raised another (challenge). Then they cannot answer again, they raised another question. Eventually they always resort to "大國博奕" and "下一盤大棋". Actually their arguments doesn't stand. But we still continue to engage to make sure the truth is reviewed.
80% of so-called US induced war of what the China is claiming is actually UN peace keeping action. On the other hand, you know China's longest time without any war is actually the past 40 years in its entire history of 3000 years (5000 years is not recognised because it includes myths and legends of 黃帝唐堯禹舜夏....)so, do not be naive to think China will not invade any countries in foreseeable future.
(The pro-China people claims China is a peace-loving nation that it never invade any countries. Actually its far from the truth. China invades Korea (that time call 高句麗)twice if we exclude the Korean War in the 50s), invades Japan twice, and Vietnam during the QianLong time, and again in 79-80。These are the failures. The successful one of course are XinJiang and Tibet)
There were mistakes made during war time and often those are exposed as those who committed the crime were brought into justice, instead of cover up. Moreover, in ancient time we do not have the same standard as today's civilisation. The China media like to accuse Canadian were killing all the indigenous and Spanish killing all the maya (etc) were mistakes they made in the past and people trying to correct them. In contrary, the chinese authority is trying to commit those mistake today.
sslee, in short, US war is never after another countries' land, its for justice, despite justice sometimes misinterpreted + poor execution.
but russian war, Taiwan invasion is after their land.
(then sslees may say US want to sell weapons. Then we go blah blah blah again. Check the global weapon trade amount is tiny. and often is free)
(then sslees may say US made the coronavirus in the fort D lab. Actually they make up the story based on a maintenance notice. The maintenance notice says the boiler not functioning well so have to shut down for maintenance. No proof or link whatsoever)
(then sslees may say US bring the virus to China through the military sport meet. Actually they make up the story based on 3 US participants had Malaria, whom had been treated and recovered. )
blah blah blah......until sslees say China is playing a big chess board game, we do not understand de lah. lol
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
