Miscellaneous - This Day That Age

dated October 25, 1958: Diplomatic recognition

Mr. John Foster Dulles said in a television interview shown in London on October 23 that the United States has had more continuous serious dealings with Communist China than any other free world country over the past 10 years. The United States recognised Communist China as a fact, but gave reasons why Washington did not recognise it diplomatically. The American Statesman said that diplomatic recognition meant that assets throughout the world were turned over to the country recognised.
