China borders multiple neighbors;thus, managing relations with these states has always been a main focus ofChinese diplomacy. After the Cold War,China's neighborhood diplomacy had three major themes:maintaining amicable relations with neighboring countries,pushing forward regional cooperation and coping with challenges posed by the U.S.alliance system against China.These three objectives are of course interrelated. In this framework,bilateral interaction was the foundation,while regional cooperation played a leading role.
