On Mao Zhe-dong's Diplomatic Thought During the Anti-Japanese War

This article discusses Mao Zhe-dong's diplomatic thought during the Anti-Japanese war from its formation to its perfection. Its main content includes: stick to the self-reliant, anti-Japanese diplomatic policy, maintain the integration of our country, try to win the supply of foreign countries, seek international cooperation, establish friendly relationship with countries beyond ideology, develop nongovernment diplomatic relationship and maintain world peace. This thought demonstrates the Chinese people's strong will and resolution to obtain equality and independence in the world. It derives from the lesson drawn by Mao Zhe-dong in his exploration on the colonization of modern China. It is also the combination of Marxism's united front theory and China's revolutionary practice. It therefore, not only was very critical to our Party's diplomacy at that time, but also played an important role in the establishment of our Party's diplomatic policy after the founding of People's Republic of China.
