Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Sino-Soviet dispute was aggravated by the lack of Soviet support for Chinese efforts to reclaim Taiwan. The underlying issues behind the dispute were ideological differences, territorial disputes, and China's growing self-confidence as a world power. The dispute was not rooted in a struggle for control of Tibet, did not bear no relationship to the level of Soviet economic assistance to China, did not see Mao describe China as the international leader of industrialized nations, and did not produce a Soviet invasion of China in 1965.
