Known for what ?... For shaking hands with a dictator who killed 80 million of his own people..... And help sell out the American citizens by having business leave to Asia...
4:37 wow, Nixon is often remembered as a corrupt dope, but I couldn't imagine more florid and thoughtful words from a politician of today's climate. Where did the class go?
I think that properness in diction is slowly going away with each generation in favor of "honest" plainness, even evident in the way we write and how we dress more casually today (more athleisure, less formality with suit and ties). However I wouldn't be surprised if one day probably over the next 200 years we end up going back into more proper speech, fashion, and behavior
They were all corrupt to some extent. The only problem with Richard Nixon is that he got caught and the mainstream media hated his guts. Why did they hate him? Because he was not part of the NE upper class clique and didn't think a country should be manipulated by angry spoiled children of the 60s that were turning this country upside down violently protesting everything that they thought was wrong. Nixon's downfall, in my opinion, is that he did not practice what he preached about not letting the hate of his enemies get to him. That led to paranoia that forced him to try and beat them to the punch by abusing his power. In the process, he ended up being linked to a crime that that he could not make disappear especially with a mainstream liberal media that was desperate for his head. A tragedy indeed because the man could have gone down as one of the best presidents in US History.
You must not know much about Nixon, Or anything about speach at all. One of the most respected speakers of all time is Obama, he bombed the shit out of a country because he was scared of the power of their currency. This trading deal was the worst trading deal ever. You dont open trade with a country that is still ruled by its dictator. Mao caused the death of over 40 million people. Thats more deaths than in world war 2. Mao killed more of his people than the japanese did. And to say that opening trade with that man is good, is crazy to say the least.
watergate betrayed his real character. the german leader during ww2 is remembered only for the atrocities. not for all the technological and social advancements he sparked and facilitated all over germany.
what a great leader, far-sighted, and visionary; the World, China and the US are indebted to him. Yet not many would want to say. Thank you for showing this. The world will move forward not backward. No matter how hostile, and hateful, there will always be great leaders like Nixon, and Nixon 2, and 3, and more to open doors, smash walls and reach out to People, and unit people, no matter what ideals, values, or races, they are. None could separate them as people are all from the same Father.
Like … out of 46?… You would rank him where? I mean, Lincoln has to be in the top three, right? Washington kinda got a lot right so he is in the top five but ya know - having the teeth of slaves kinda seems like something that would knock him down a few pegs even if he claimed to be against slavery… Obama got a lot done, built back our economy so while he is so modern as to still be decisive I am still putting him in my top 3. Reagan was very very popular but a lot of stuff he did was sketchy AF (Iran / contra , ignoring the AIDS epidemic) - but I guess he still belongs in the top 10 if for charisma alone? George W. Bush looks far better in hindsight than he did while he was president but yeah … 20 year war, plus recession … no amount of books of paintings unscrews that pooch so I can’t even put him in top 10. Most of Nixon’s headlines are his insistence on staying in Vietnam, and watergate … then of course the stuff that was revealed during that trial, the enemy’s list, the racist stuff (at least he didn’t have slaves )… I mean, the China thing was awesome but I feel like that other stuff still isn’t putting him in the top 10. He is lucky that so many presidents in the past were shit shows (Andrew Jackson’s whole genocide thing makes Nixon look like Mother Theresa) or else I am not sure he could even stay in the top 20. Also unmemorable presidents also gotta go to the back of the line - sorry William Henry Harrison. While technically Harrison never got us into any wars and had absolutely no scandals, he also died within a few hours of taking office so that feels like a default loss.

It was Gough Whitlam, former Prime Minister of Australia, who was the first Western Diplomat to visit China since it had become a Communist ruled country. He visited in 1971 with a labour delegation, setting up trade agreements. His comment to the Australian and World media being 'How can we ignore a billion people?' Full diplomatic relations were announced in 1972. Nixon followed suit in 1972 for the same purpose, however full dipĺomatic relations with the US were not announced until 1979. Whitlam visited again as the formal Prime Minister (President) in 1973. He is seen by China as the Western Diplomat who 'broke the ice' between the East and West and he is remembered by China for his visits and vision to this day. When he passed in 2014 China held tribute parades and commemorated his life.
ROC was rich with many friends - PRC was messed up with all sorts of self inflicted disasters - US bold move peeled off a communist ideologue and helped PRC develop and gain friendships
No it did not, not for the majority of the people. It enabled the CCP to build up it's military for the purpose of their manifesto to dominate the world.

Very good seminal move indeed. The world cannot lock out 1.4 billion people forever, who will now constitute a great nation. Moreover, the repentance of the West over its immoral transgressions on China for over a century has been a salubrious moral purgative to the thoughtful. The world needs a secular anchor to curb excessive religiosity, particularly in the Middle East, where the USA has blundered repeatedly. The Chinese have become more and more cosmopolitan. Remnants of colonialism are not razed to the ground but preserved, not just in Hong Kong and Macau, but elsewhere such as Guangzhou, Tianjin, Shanghai, Qingdao, Harbin. The West needs to acknowledge this felicitous tendency. Moreover, China is achieving enough without starting a war; hence, this tendency will have the chance to flourish under peace. Peace is very few people dying, not any suggested self-determination for Taiwan. The crux is that 1.4 billion Chinese simply exist. There will be no ideological utopia for governance worldwide, and the utopia for the West itself in recent years has been shown to be an illusion. The situation with respect to China is already very good, probably as good as it can be.
Internal conflicts, feudal and civil wars, cultural revolution had much greater disasters in mainland China than than what the Western nations ever did to China. The great border wall is testament to their downfalls. The West has been a great force of advancement to the world.

Because you kidnapped my son and compromised his trust in me as a parent. He now acts like a parent about decisions in my home. So, I will not extended not even a finger to you. You seem to not understand the amount of damage you have caused everywhere and so many lives. All for your fantasies. So quit fantasizing about meeting me.
Mao own son died in the korean war, bombed by the Americans, but for his people he invited Nixon in 1972 and shook his hands to create a better global relation and get his country out of decades of american sanctions, for which he was forced to implement agriculteral reforms which eventually failed. Many people blamed Mao for this disaster which lead to hunger deaths of millions, but its actually United States who have blood on their hands. Mao was on his deathbed when he invited Nixon and had terminal illness, but he gathered his energy barely able to stand on his feet, swallowed his pride and shook the hand of Nixon in front of the world with a smile. For this Mao should receive the nobel peace price, post mortum.
What red book did you find this information in?? Mao created the reform himself, farming was going 'fine' but he didnt want to allow big farmers to keep producing lots of food. So he had them killed. And that led to mass starvation. Not the sactions of the US, that just an excuse that Mao uses to rally the Chinese people behind him against the US. Its exactly what hitler did in the 1930's, he said that it was the fault of the west that they were poor, and people took his word for it and followed him. Following Mao is just as bad as following Hitler
Corrupt and duplicitous AF, but Nixon at least was interested and thoughtful about policy both foreign and domestic. Just compare him to the modern know-nothing Republican party.
This reminds me of when Trump visited NK, and China's Mao Zedong was just as brutal as Kim, and even more, as he killed 78 million people. But good came out of that visit and China joined the family of nations as Nixon hoped! Hopefully, North Korea will come out and be a civilized society.
@@tusarkoirala5955 Even if Kim's regime is brutal, there is a reason behind it. You should've seen what happened when the US convoy first arrived to the peninsula.
This proved to be an absolute disaster for humanity. Along with going off the gold standard and the oil crises ensuring permanent inflation since the early 1970s, this was the end of the post-war golden era; when one income could sustain a family and when anyone could work and be a success. Enabling Red China to eventually undercut everyone else on the planet with their slave workers, which kept wages stagnant, as well as outsourcing industries and manufacturing ('real jobs'), for pennies on the dollar. The 2008 Second Depression only accelerated it. Now anyone who cannot work a leftover 'people job' and don't want to get into student debt, find themselves unemployable, or part of the working poor. All while costs of living continue to skyrocket. Due to the Sino-Soviet split (1956-89), this rapprochement with the worst mass murderer in history, Mao (c.80 million dead; more than WW2 in it's entirety), was entirely unnecessary and only proved to line the pockets of the Western top 1%, who got fat off of the profits, and the evil CCP. Red China also unleashed the disastrous Covid-19 pandemic, which the paid off World Health Organization refuses to blame. Even the media is slowly trying to memory hole this. It looks like Big Brother is winning, as this evil insidious globalism returns human beings to serfdom, where everyone is replaceable by someone cheaper. The West getting into bed with Red China has proved to be worse than the Cold War with the Soviets ever was. They did a deal with the devil and the world is paying for it.
Finally someone who shares my thoughts on this trip. I might concede that from a humanitarian view point Nixons trip had its merits but this aspect fades when taking into account the strategic consequences for the US and the Western World in general because of the much more important economic consequences that followed by establishing "special economic zones" where the Chinese could start production and export goods to the World, mainly the US, thereby gaining access to USD which allowed them to grow and compete in a way that would otherwise not have been possible. Not only could the Chinese use the Dollar to buy machinery and other stuff to develop their economy but by opening their market selectively they could play each Nation against the other forcing foreign companies to give away production secrets and force them into joint ventures with the sole purpose to gain access to know-how without paying for it. Without the access provided by Nixon and facilitated by Kissinger China would not have become a competitor within this relatively short time span and most of all the US would still have the dominant economic and strategic position that it reached after WW2. The winners of this trip are the communist party and the shareholders of big corporations while the looser is the working class in the Western hemisphere and even the Chinese people because evil CCP is more powerful than ever. To me Nixon committed a strategic error as it seems that he did not foresee the consequences and if he did I would rather see him as a traitor for the ordinary US citizen.
Exactly, this kept Communism alive in China. Imagine no US Capital flowing into China with a Communist System. The people would be starving and rebelled.

He visited in 1971 with a labour delegation, setting up trade agreements. His comment to the Australian and World media being 'How can we ignore a billion people?' Full diplomatic relations were announced in 1972. Nixon followed suit in 1972 for the same purpose, however full dipĺomatic relations with the US were not announced until 1979. Whitlam visited again as the formal Prime Minister (President) in 1973. He is seen by China as the Western Diplomat who 'broke the ice' between the East and West and he is remembered by China for his visits and vision to this day. When he passed in 2014 China held tribute parades and commemorated his life.
The moment that the American industry collapsed.
The end of American industry.

"Nixon had to go to China."

As smart and intuitive as NIxon was, Watergate will always baffle everyone since he knew he was going to annihilate McGovern (which he did)!
This is biggest mistake done by Nixon ..
WATERGATE

Amazing
My God, what a GREAT POTS, back when leaders did GREAT THINGS, World-changing things.
ROC was rich with many friends - PRC was messed up with all sorts of self inflicted disasters - US bold move peeled off a communist ideologue and helped PRC develop and gain friendships
Nixon and Kissinger were in great part responsible for what the prc is today
Best president when it came to handling foreign affairs
The trip that lifted China out of poverty and despair.
And Americans payed the price. We were sold out.
nice try, current China/US relations are and have been devoid of military hostilities and that is what it's 'all' about...

You dont own this planet yank.
No it did not, not for the majority of the people. It enabled the CCP to build up it's military for the purpose of their manifesto to dominate the world.
A trip that shouldn't of happen.
Brilliant!!
Nixon was a genius
Nixon is joke
Son of bitch
Nixon lost Vietnam and Taiwan.
He was cunning and tried to invest the Sino-Soviet split
for china he was

why does nixon sound like optimus prime? (just saying)
I still don't get why this is a big deal? And why did we let Nixon go?
poor you!!! Pity on you

I I love ❤️ ❤️❤️❤️you presidents.
Mao is a dictator not a president.
Nixon is one of the worst presidents the US has ever had.
Trade with China is good, Trade with Mao is wrong
Who narrated this?
❤❤❤❤❤
This was a mistake.
no the mistake was the continued imperialism comig from the cia and AIPAC who seem to find it difficult to keep there armies within there own borders. its up to chins to decide its regime. not you. by the way im an anti communist, anti matxist, traditionalist and nixon/Buchanan/duke suppprter but we hsbe no business in any country but oojr own because it puts us in debt and causes chaos abroad.
the mistake was the anti Nixon right who insist on interfering in other peoples afairs and national sovereignty when you have no legal or moral right too. by the way im a nationalist and anti communist and ultra conservative i the lindbergh or buchanan style which is why i dont want us in debt or dying for Rothschild bankers unless were invaded.
Without this visit, China would still be ally of USSR and enemy of the US, the Cold War would probably last for another 30 years.
@@zachferrara6955 they probably would've collapsed similar to how the SU's economy collapsed.
@@zachferrara6955 USSR isn't a ally to China. It had Sino Soviet split during the Cold War. The reason Nixon opened Chiba is well...put the Russians down.
And now we have coronavirus
It's s also because Trump is incompetent of containing the virus.
@@zachferrara6955 biden must be incompetent too because its still ravaging through the country, actually hospitals are more overwhelmed under biden, what do you suggest he could have done differently to contain the virus? what new approach has biden brought to the table? besides distributing a vaccine that was developed under trump, seems like an unreasonable expectation for one man accross the world to contain a global pandemic that started in CHINA.
@@zachferrara6955 No it’s because China hasn’t allowed an independent international investigation in Wuhan to find the origins of the virus.
awesome
Chou en lai looked with so much hatred in the eyes during that banquet scene
It looked like caution to me, i.e. "Is this man trusthworthy or not?" and I feel like it didn't really soften at the end hahaha
Very good seminal move indeed. The world cannot lock out 1.4 billion people forever, who will now constitute a great nation. Moreover, the repentance of the West over its immoral transgressions on China for over a century has been a salubrious moral purgative to the thoughtful. The world needs a secular anchor to curb excessive religiosity, particularly in the Middle East, where the USA has blundered repeatedly.
The Chinese have become more and more cosmopolitan. Remnants of colonialism are not razed to the ground but preserved, not just in Hong Kong and Macau, but elsewhere such as Guangzhou, Tianjin, Shanghai, Qingdao, Harbin. The West needs to acknowledge this felicitous tendency. Moreover, China is achieving enough without starting a war; hence, this tendency will have the chance to flourish under peace. Peace is very few people dying, not any suggested self-determination for Taiwan.
The crux is that 1.4 billion Chinese simply exist. There will be no ideological utopia for governance worldwide, and the utopia for the West itself in recent years has been shown to be an illusion. The situation with respect to China is already very good, probably as good as it can be.
Agreed.
Internal conflicts, feudal and civil wars, cultural revolution had much greater disasters in mainland China than than what the Western nations ever did to China. The great border wall is testament to their downfalls. The West has been a great force of advancement to the world.
lmao, garbage
The world needs to move away from populism and spectacle...we are not in the age of reason or enlightenment. God (or the bastardization of) isn't the problem.

Unfortunately Nixon started the US reliance on cheap Chinese products.

Wish he had never gone there.
Why ?
Because you kidnapped my son and compromised his trust in me as a parent. He now acts like a parent about decisions in my home. So, I will not extended not even a finger to you.
You seem to not understand the amount of damage you have caused everywhere and so many lives. All for your fantasies. So quit fantasizing about meeting me.

Mao own son died in the korean war, bombed by the Americans, but for his people he invited Nixon in 1972 and shook his hands to create a better global relation and get his country out of decades of american sanctions, for which he was forced to implement agriculteral reforms which eventually failed. Many people blamed Mao for this disaster which lead to hunger deaths of millions, but its actually United States who have blood on their hands. Mao was on his deathbed when he invited Nixon and had terminal illness, but he gathered his energy barely able to stand on his feet, swallowed his pride and shook the hand of Nixon in front of the world with a smile. For this Mao should receive the nobel peace price, post mortum.
Didn't the starvation happened because Mao decided to heavily industrialize the country in order to impress the Soviets?
What red book did you find this information in??
Mao created the reform himself, farming was going 'fine' but he didnt want to allow big farmers to keep producing lots of food. So he had them killed. And that led to mass starvation.
Not the sactions of the US, that just an excuse that Mao uses to rally the Chinese people behind him against the US.
Its exactly what hitler did in the 1930's, he said that it was the fault of the west that they were poor, and people took his word for it and followed him.
Following Mao is just as bad as following Hitler
Great joke
He would've been a great president if watergate didn't happen.
Corrupt and duplicitous AF, but Nixon at least was interested and thoughtful about policy both foreign and domestic. Just compare him to the modern know-nothing Republican party.
When get old enough human shrinking ... Looks like Mao Tze Tung has shrunk in height

such a momentus piece of history. yet only 30k some views in the west. lol.

This reminds me of when Trump visited NK, and China's Mao Zedong was just as brutal as Kim, and even more, as he killed 78 million people. But good came out of that visit and China joined the family of nations as Nixon hoped! Hopefully, North Korea will come out and be a civilized society.
Lmao
Larry G North Korea has a potential to become richer than South Korea but for this kim regime has to go
@@tusarkoirala5955 Even if Kim's regime is brutal, there is a reason behind it. You should've seen what happened when the US convoy first arrived to the peninsula.

This proved to be an absolute disaster for humanity. Along with going off the gold standard and the oil crises ensuring permanent inflation since the early 1970s, this was the end of the post-war golden era; when one income could sustain a family and when anyone could work and be a success.
Enabling Red China to eventually undercut everyone else on the planet with their slave workers, which kept wages stagnant, as well as outsourcing industries and manufacturing ('real jobs'), for pennies on the dollar. The 2008 Second Depression only accelerated it. Now anyone who cannot work a leftover 'people job' and don't want to get into student debt, find themselves unemployable, or part of the working poor. All while costs of living continue to skyrocket.
Due to the Sino-Soviet split (1956-89), this rapprochement with the worst mass murderer in history, Mao (c.80 million dead; more than WW2 in it's entirety), was entirely unnecessary and only proved to line the pockets of the Western top 1%, who got fat off of the profits, and the evil CCP.
Red China also unleashed the disastrous Covid-19 pandemic, which the paid off World Health Organization refuses to blame. Even the media is slowly trying to memory hole this. It looks like Big Brother is winning, as this evil insidious globalism returns human beings to serfdom, where everyone is replaceable by someone cheaper.
The West getting into bed with Red China has proved to be worse than the Cold War with the Soviets ever was. They did a deal with the devil and the world is paying for it.
Finally someone who shares my thoughts on this trip. I might concede that from a humanitarian view point Nixons trip had its merits but this aspect fades when taking into account the strategic consequences for the US and the Western World in general because of the much more important economic consequences that followed by establishing "special economic zones" where the Chinese could start production and export goods to the World, mainly the US, thereby gaining access to USD which allowed them to grow and compete in a way that would otherwise not have been possible. Not only could the Chinese use the Dollar to buy machinery and other stuff to develop their economy but by opening their market selectively they could play each Nation against the other forcing foreign companies to give away production secrets and force them into joint ventures with the sole purpose to gain access to know-how without paying for it. Without the access provided by Nixon and facilitated by Kissinger China would not have become a competitor within this relatively short time span and most of all the US would still have the dominant economic and strategic position that it reached after WW2. The winners of this trip are the communist party and the shareholders of big corporations while the looser is the working class in the Western hemisphere and even the Chinese people because evil CCP is more powerful than ever. To me Nixon committed a strategic error as it seems that he did not foresee the consequences and if he did I would rather see him as a traitor for the ordinary US citizen.
Woman which entered a man's world(and abandoned marriage, their children and family...). THAT will be the fall.
Exactly, this kept Communism alive in China. Imagine no US Capital flowing into China with a Communist System. The people would be starving and rebelled.
This was a terrible mistake!
