Abstract:
Aiding Vietnam against French aggressors was one of the key foreign aid policies of new China in the early founding days and was also an important part of the Party diplomacy then. Liu Shaoqi, the direct leader of China’s Vietnam-aiding policies in the first half of the 1950’s, made new China quickly establish a Vietnam-aiding mechanism and extensively start the training of Vietnamese students and revolutionary cadres. With the help of varieties of military and economic aids to Vietnam, Vietnamese struggle against French aggressors was steadily deepened. After the victorious end of Vietnamese anti-French struggle, under the actual direction of Liu Shaoqi, new China offered enormous aids to Vietnamese communists in taking over cities, land reform and post-war reconstruction.
