They did it to encourage China as a niggling element since China was veering away from the USSR and USSR was their enemy No 1.ya grateful as we are. but bear in mind "respect" or "status" or membership of the "exclusive" club was earned, not a favour bestowed upon China.
would Nixon or Kissinger have done the **** trick for China if China were nobody in the equation?? Any free bread in the world?
when 'propaganda' is abused by everybody, the only way is to get "FACT" based in discussion
China's proximity to China was alluring.
And the US was hell bent to dismember Communism, which they did with USSR and is in the process of doing it with China, by alluring them into the ways of capitalism, to encourage Robber Barons and then break up the society into haves and have nots. And they are doing well.
China was nowhere in the reckoning when China was given the seat!
Therefore, it was not 'hard earned'.
China was just a tool in the geopolitical interest of the US.
That is the 'bread' for which crumbs were thrown!
