"Chinese Question" at the International Meeting of Communist and Workers’ Parties in 1969
The article deals with the discussion of the unity issue of the world communist movement at the international meeting of Communist and Workers’ Parties in 1969. The key positions on the assessment of foreign policy of the Chinese leadership are outlined. The author makes a conclusion about the ambiguity of the results of the 1969 Meeting. On the one hand, the vast majority of the representatives of Communist and Workers' Parties condemned the policy of the Chinese leadership that was approved by the IX Congress of the CPC. The representatives opposed the anti-Soviet policy of Beijing. On the other hand, there was no criticism of the PRC leadership positions in the documents of the International Meeting of Communist and Workers' parties. All this indicates the absence of unity of the Communist and Workers' Parties. The Romanian delegation was the actual ally of CPC at the Meeting and raised a key issue of the permissibility of assaulting one Communist Party the other.
