Tracing the history of friendly ties between the Soviet and Chinese peoples, he recalled how the CPSU and Lenin personally contributed to the victory of the Chinese revolution. Lenin stress- ed its importance for the cause of socialism in the whole world. Numerous examples irrefut- ably prove that the policy of the CPSU and the Soviet state “was directed from the first day of the existence of the Chinese Peo- ple’s Republic toward the strengthening of friendship and cooperation of our two ,coun- tries, at rendering every possible aid and support to the Chinese people in the struggle for social- ism.” As far back as May 31, 1924, the USSR and China, then head- ed by Sun Yat-sen, signed an “agreement on common prin- ciples for settling questions be- tween the USSR and the Chin- ese Republic.” This was the first equal treaty with China. The Communist Party of China did much in those years to educate the Chinese people in a spirit of friendship for the Soviet Union. The first Societies of Friendship with the USSR were set up under its leadership as long ago as 1924-1926. True to its policy of aiding countries struggling against im- perialist aggression, the Soviet Union gave China substantial military and material support during the Chinese people’s anti- Japanese war of 1937-1945. Soviet volunteer pilots fought in China beginning in 1938 and Soviet military specialists were sent there. Many Soviet people gave their lives to help the Chinese people achieve libera- tion, (Among those Soviet aces was Winnipeg-born Stepan (Steve) Suprun, twice Hero of the Soviet Union, who was killed in World War Two.—Ed.) The Soviet Union’s joining of the war against Japan in 1945, and the rout of the Kwantung Army of the Japanese militar- ists created favorable conditions for the formation of a powerful base of the revolutionary strug- gle in the northeast of China. The victorious march that ended in the liberation of the whole country started from there. The Chinese people highly assessed the aid given by the Soviet people ta China’s nation- al liberation struggle and expres- «sed profound gratitude.

The Soviet-Chinese Friendship Society, the article stresses, con- tinues its vigorous activity to this day. . The Soviet position in rela- tions with People’s China for- mulated in the decisions of the 24th CPSU Congress and the November 1971 Plenary Meet- ing of the CPSU Central Com- mittee, the article says, is clear- cut and it accords with the car- dinal, long-term interests of the two countries, the interests of socialism and peace. Soviet peo- ple are confident that good- neighborliness and friendship be- tween the Soviet Union and China will be restored in the long run.

It combatted various anti-Soviet sentiments and tendencies that became es- pecially marked in 1957, when right-wing anti-socialist forces launched a large-scale offensive in China. The main targets of the right- wingers were socialism in China itself: and the Soviet Union abroad. Attempts were made from po- sitions of bourgeois nationalism to create public dissatisfaction with the Soviet Union and to “prove” that the Soviet exper- iences in building socialism didn’t apply to China.
