After the representatives of China, the DPRK, and the United States signed the Korean War Armistice Agreement at Panmunjom, public opinion all over the world boiled over, just as General Clarke, the supreme commander of the US Korean battlefield, said that he was the first American officer not to sign the victory agreement, as the savior who led the Western world to defeat fascism in World War II, the tactical failure of the United States in the Korean War made the Western countries tremble.

Based on strength and evaluation of a country's capabilities, the victory of the Korean War laid the foundation for New China to gain a foothold in the international community; Stalin of the Soviet Union immediately began to implement all the contents of the Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Alliance to cancel all unequal treaties with China; the Office of the Diplomatic Chargé d'affaires in China, which the British have maintained normal operations since the founding of New China, began to prepare a plan for the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries; and France, which was snubbed by the West, has taken the establishment of diplomatic relations and new China as a foreign priority policy consideration. India, which was a peacemaker during the Korean War, led dozens of countries in the Third World to congratulate New China.

With one punch and one punch, the United States has never been able to talk to China based on its strength. The glory of the country brought dignity to the overseas Chinese, lee kuan yew, a Singaporean who was studying in Britain at the time, recalled: "After the Korean War, as an Asian, I was only straighter in Britain, before the Korean War, I traveled in Europe, people often discriminated against the Chinese, but after China sent troops to Korea and won successive victories, the Western European customs officers were awe-struck when they saw the Chinese, and since then I have also begun to seriously learn Chinese." "Dressed in the body, the heart is still the heart of China, and the cultural self-confidence and national identity in the heart need to be supported by strong national strength."

Coincidentally, the memories of another overseas Chinese are very similar to Lee Kuan Yew, a long-retired Kuomintang veteran who was riding a bus in a small country in the Americas, and when a local learned that he was a Chinese, he shouted to the people in the car: Look, this is Chinese! Just yesterday, our arrogant neighbor signed the Korean Armistice, and the invincible Yankees were defeated by the same Chinese as this gentleman, and in front of us stood a great Chinese!"

So the whole car stood up and applauded, and shook hands with the veterans. At that moment, the veteran's inner world was strongly shaken.

The impact of the Korean War is far-reaching, after the 911 incident in the United States in 2001, Chinese American organizations imitated the form of Chinese volunteers to form the United States Volunteer Army, and they used the Chinese Volunteer Army to shape the invincible international image of the Chinese army to bring a sense of security to the panicked Americans.

After the September 11 incident, the U.S.A.V.R.A. Reserve Volunteer Organization (U.S.A.V.R.A.), which aims to stimulate american patriotic enthusiasm and serve American veterans, has grown rapidly in the Chinese community, with about 300 Chinese from Vietnam, China, and South Korea participating, with an average age of more than 40 years old. The organization hopes to involve more people in the community and grow to 20,000 people.

The Reserve Volunteer Corps is a reserve team managed by the Department of Defense, and anyone who has obtained a U.S. citizen and a green card can apply to join, and after a security review, obtain official documents. The Chinese Reserve Volunteer Army has not yet been approved by the US Department of Defense to establish a separate corps, and hopes that more Chinese will participate in the future and let the mainstream society in the United States understand the strength of the Chinese community.

On the whole, the Korean War made New China a veritable permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, and after New China experienced the Korean War and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Vietnam, as well as the Sino-Indian Self-Defense Counterattack War and the Sino-Soviet Treasure Island War, the other four permanent members have been convinced, and everyone can do it to bring about world peace and development through dialogue to seek common ground while reserving differences.
