Why did china decide to open relations with the us after nixon’s multiple attempts? a) china wanted the us to invade the korean peninsula and overthrow the government of south korea b) the us offered to stop trading with japan so that chinese goods would cost more on the world market c) the us offered protection against an uprising in rural china d) china’s increased conflict with the soviet union over territory led china to work with the us

The answer is D. Contrasts with the Soviet Union developed and in 1959 they moved toward becoming rivals in the global framework offering two unique models of socialism. China was seen by progressive US presidents from Dwight Eisenhower to Lyndon Johnson as a feature of the more extensive 'communist threat'; a view fortified by China's procurement of atomic weapons in 1964. China's contribution in the Korean War (1950– 1953) set Chinese troops specifically against US powers and their partners, bringing about a stalemate that kept on isolating North and South Korea well into the twenty-first century.
