Abstract

Vietnam Revolutionary War until 1972 had been in preparation for a development by leaps and bounds, but also faced many new situations and factors, including the U.S. implementation of diplomacy policies with powerful countries by the first visit to Beijing in early 1972. That political event marked a change to the global situation, having important implications for China's aid during the process of Vietnamese people’s resistance. Immediately after the handshake between Nixon and Mao Zedong, China made a change in policy towards Vietnam: from being committed to “providing anything necessary to meet the needs of Vietnam" to emphasizing on “decreasing the burden on China”.
