Korea and American Support of Chiang Kai-Shek: Setting the Pattern of Post-1949 Chinese-American Conflict. The communist revolution in China crystallized and intensified the hostility between Washington and Peking. This was because the Americans had supported the Nationalist regime of Chiang Kai Shek, who had alienated the Chinese masses. The corruption of Chiang, therefore, had played a big role in fuelling the momentum of the communist revolution, which had no choice but to take on an anti-American disposition. The Korean War, which followed subsequently, solidified the antagonism between Chinese communism and the United States. 18.5 pgs. 31 f/c. 6b.
