摘要
1969年的中苏边界冲突使双方走到了战争的边缘,美国方面对中苏冲突的反应是一个从倾向于中国“好战”和“挑衅”到看清苏联意图的认识过程。美国一直想利用中苏分歧,使其在与苏联争夺霸权的较量中获利。1969年的中苏边界冲突客观上为美国提供了一个绝好的机会,尼克松政府也抓住了这个机会。中苏边界冲突造成的中苏关系空前紧张的形势,使尼克松、基辛格感到美国有可能在处理美、苏、中三角关系中处于优越地位。所以,中苏冲突客观上是促进美国加速调整对华政策的催化剂。
The border conflict in 1969 brought China and the Soviet Union to the brink of war. At first the US regarded China as 'bellicose' and 'provocative' but gradually it saw the true intention of the Soviet side. The Americans had always tried to take advantage of the Sino - Soviet disputes in order to outweigh the Soviets in their contention for world hegemony. The border conflict in 1969 objectively provided an excellent opportunity for the US, which the Nixon administration seized to its advantage. Nixon and Kissinger were elated with its possible advantageous position in the triangle relations among the US, the USSR and China as a result of the unprecedentedly intense relations between the Soviet Union and China as marked by their border conflict. Thus the border conflict served as a strong catalyst for the American government to accelerate the change in its China policy.
