Features: Deng Xiaoping's outstanding diplomacy theory and practice have written a brilliant chapter in the history of Chinese diplomacy. His extraordinary diplomatic demeanor and charm are praised by people around the world who love peace. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the 20th anniversary of China's reform and opening-up, we have specially compiled this album "Deng Xiaoping's Diplomatic Style," using vivid and precious historical images to showcase Deng Xiaoping's great contributions to Chinese diplomacy, world peace, and the cause of human progress. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Deng Xiaoping participated in many important foreign affairs activities, promoting the development of China's diplomatic cause. In the 1970s, he made unremitting efforts to eliminate the interference of the "Cultural Revolution" on foreign affairs. He actively supported the struggle of third-world countries for economic independence and the consolidation of political independence. He led a delegation to attend the Sixth Special Session of the United Nations, delivered an important speech, and elaborated on China's strategic thinking on the division of the three worlds and its advocacy for establishing a new international economic order. He led negotiations with Japan to sign the "Sino-Japanese Peace and Friendship Treaty" and visited Japan to attend the ceremony for the exchange of instruments of ratification, ushering in a new high tide of friendly exchanges between China and Japan. He led negotiations on the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, reached an agreement on the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, and visited the United States, achieving the normalization of China-U.S. relations.
