The influences of 'the third countries' during Anti Japanese War mainly refers to the public concessions which were mastered by Britain, the United States and France. The general principles of Japan before the Pacific War was to seek the victory of the war in China, and tried to make Britain, the United States and France keeping neutral. Meanwhile, they tried hard to weaken the influence of Britain and America in Shanghai in order to occupy Shanghai by itself. When the concessions were occupied, they tried by every means to exploit the economic interests of Britain and America there and to clear away their political influences. During the war, Britain and the United States denounced Japanese occupation of Shanghai for their own interests and had never recognized the puppet regime there.
