The China History Podcast
Written By Laszlo Montgomery

Welcome back to the China History Podcast’s 10-Year Anniversary Series that reviews US-China relations from 1969 to 1972.  This time in Part 4 we see how the talks in Beijing went between two very smooth operators: Zhou Enlai and Henry A. Kissinger. 

We’ll close out the episode with Kissinger back in the States giving his boss, the president, the whole skinny on the July 9-11, 1971 visit and the discussions.
