北伐初期英日在华关系(1926.12～1927.5)

Nglo-Japanese Relation During the Early Northern Expedition,1926.12～1927.5

1926年7月,广州国民政府吹响了北伐的号角,掀起统一中国的高潮,中国民族解放运动走向一个新阶段。英国、日本等列强的在华殖民利益同时受到猛烈冲击。面对此种形势,英国和日本不得不各自采取措施保护殖民权益,英国出台"圣诞节备忘录",做出向中国"妥协"的姿态,日本也发表对华"新政策",以示"友好"。同时,英国也在不同场合向日本发出求助信号,日本的反应则是:积极磋商、含糊应付,是典型的外热内冷型。究其原因,首先在于中国的民族解放运动对两国冲击力度不同,其次则是两国基本利益发生矛盾无法协调。

In July 1926, with Guangzhou national government blowing the horn of northern expedition, China national liberation movement came into a new stage.Britain, Japan and other powers＇colonial interests were under severe impact. Faced with this situation, British and Japan have taken measures to protect their interests.British introduced the ＂Christmas Memo＂ showing ＂compromise＂ attitude; Japan issued a ＂new policy＂ for ＂friendliness＂.Meanwhile, British sent Japan the signal for help on different occasions, but Japanese＇s reaction is discussion without action.The underlined reason is the weak impact of China＇s national liberation movement on two countries and the uncoordinated conflict of fundamental interests of two countries.
