Abstract

[The question of China’s foreign aid began at the time of the founding of the People’s Republic of China and it spans a period of more than six decades. Over the past six decades, China’s foreign aid has played a gradual, subtle role in China’s external relations, and is thus irreplaceable by other diplomatic tools. In 1949, China faced the first full blockade and embargo by the Western world since the founding of New China; the “lop-sided” diplomatic policies helped China secure economic aid from the Soviet Union. China not only embarked on the road of rapid industrialization by leveraging this aid, but it also began to provide military and economic aid to other countries in the socialist camp, such as North Korea, Vietnam and Mongolia, by following the principles of proletarian internationalismInternationalism. Later, in light of the need for national independence and economic development by countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America, New China began to offer economic and technological assistance to these countries. After the Chinese economic reform, the scale of China’s foreign aid steadily increased and its influence grew, thus increasingly attracting global attention.]
