AB - The Korean War has broken out with the permission of Stalin and the consent of Mao Zedong. Originally, Stalin had opposed Kim Ilsung’s request for the outbreak of the war because of his fear of American intervention, and Mao Zedong had disagreed the war until the emancipation of the Taiwan. But Stalin changed his mind between Dec. 1949 and Jan. 1950, and Mao consented the war of unexpected time.
The sudden change of Stalin’s attitude for Korean War and Mao’s consent was related to the new Sino-Soviet Treaty and Sino-Soviet relation. The new Sion-Soviet Treaty was signed during the Mao’s visit to Moscow. Stalin had not agreed to sign the new Sino-Soviet Treaty to replace the old Sino-Soviet Treaty sign by USSR and Republican China, because of the risk of the loss of the Soviet interests at Chinese Manchuria etc, guaranteed by the old Sino-Soviet Treaty. But Stalin was compelled to concede to sign the new treaty not only Mao’s persistent effort but also the possibility of the normalization of the Sino-American relation if not agree to sign the new treaty.
Although Stalin and Mao had the same ideology, there was a deep crack between them formed by the Soviet intervention to the Chinese Revolution. U.S. government knew the conflict and tried to separate their relation. The new Sino-Soviet Treaty was signed at that background. So, the new treaty was not just the symbol of Sino-Soviet friendship but result of the mutual distrust. At that circumstance, Stalin agreed with Kim Ilsung’s war for the purpose of the elimination of the possibility for the Sino-US normalization. As Mao said, Stalin’s distrust of Mao faded away just after the Korean war.
