On July 27, 1953, when the news of the signing of the Korean Armistice Agreement reached the United States, MacArthur, the former commander of the "United Nations Army", said happily: "If the Korean War had been fought according to my plan, it would never have been like this." Clark, the current commander, said sadly: "I am the only commander who has not signed the victorious armistice." ”
For the Americans, all the strategic goals of the Korean war have not been achieved, but the newly established new China, the powerful force that burst out shocked them, so the public opinion of the United States chose to collectively forget, and the Korean War is also known as the "forgotten war" in the United States.
For the U.S. army, which won a huge victory in World War II, in the face of the very fierce Japanese in World War II, they thought that they could achieve great victories, so they did not pay attention to the Chinese volunteer army at the beginning of the war.
But when their opponents were replaced by Chinese volunteers who nibbled on frozen potatoes, their clothes were tattered, and they were short of food and clothing, they were beaten to the ground, and this huge psychological gap was difficult to accept in the hearts of Americans.
When the news of the armistice agreement reached the United States, american newspapers reported it in a very flat manner, and the Washington Daily directly pointed out in the article: "Washington greeted the news of the armistice with an indifferent, fait accompli attitude, calm and without any good news." ”
The New York Times wrote in the report: "Although the armistice has been signed, the soldiers on the nearby hills are still bleeding and the fighting will continue for 12 hours." ”
In the 20 years since the signing of the Korean War Armistice Agreement, the United States has been very hostile to New China and has tried every means to curb the development of New China. In the past 20 years, U.S. military spending has increased by four times, and a series of military bases have been established around new China.
What we are most familiar with is that the United States established three major island chains to blockade New China.
In addition, the United States vigorously supports Japan. Japan gained huge benefits in this war, and a large number of U.S. military orders were given to Japan, and Japan's economy quickly recovered.
Japan seized the opportunity to hug the Americans' laps, and the United States even used Japan as an important base for blockade of New China. In the face of a rising China, the United States has established a military alliance around China, and Japan is undoubtedly an important part of this link. #History# #People ##War#
