1958年杜勒斯—戴高乐会谈与美法关系

The Meeting between Dulles and de Gaulle in 1958 and Franco-American Relations

1958年6月,戴高乐重新执掌法国政权。美国虽然欢迎戴高乐上台,但对戴高乐将采取何种政策并不确定。为了解戴高乐政府的外交政策,为发展美法友好关系打下基础,美国国务卿杜勒斯于当年7月4—6日访问巴黎。杜勒斯与戴高乐的会谈围绕东西方关系、法国大国地位、北约、法国发展核武器、黎巴嫩问题、最高级会谈、欧洲等众多话题展开,但总的基调是分歧大于一致。这种分歧是由美、法战略地位的差异以及美国内政外交的情况所决定的。此次会谈不仅坚定了戴高乐走独立外交道路的决心,也在一定程度上改变了美国在欧洲部署核武器的策略,从而成为美、法矛盾向尖锐化发展的重要起点。

Charles de Gaulle resumed the premiership of the French Fourth Republic in June 1958. Though being supportive to his return,the U. S. was skeptical of his upcoming policies. Therefore,in order to lay a solid foundation for the relationship between the two countries, John Foster Dulles, the U. S. Secretary of State,took an official visit to Paris from 3 to 6 July in that year. The meeting between Dulles and de Gaulle covered many issues: the relationship between the East and the West,the international status of France,NATO,the development of nuclear weapons in France,the Lebanon issue,the summit,etc. Generally speaking,their disagreements prevailed during the meeting. This was a result of the differences between the two countries in terms of strategic status,and the domestic and diplomatic situations. The meeting solidified de Gaulle's determination in the pursuit of an independent diplomacy and to some extent altered the U. S. strategy of nuclear deployment in Europe. Hence,it could be considered as the beginning of the exacerbation of Franco-American relations.
