“…La caduta di Chruscev mise Pechino di fronte alla necessità di intendere se e in che termini il cambio al vertice dell'Urss avrebbe modificato l'attitudine di Mosca nei confronti della Cina. Con scetticismo, la leadership del Partito comunista cinese sembrava propensa a ritenere che il nuovo gruppo dirigente sovietico -raccolto adesso intorno a Breznev e Kossighin -non avrebbe mutato sostanzialmente la politica estera dell'Urss e che l'ostilità tra i due partiti non sarebbe scemata, come ebbe modo di costatare Zhou Enlai nella sua missione a Mosca all'inizio di novembre (Khoo 2010(Khoo , 2011.

The deterioration of political and ideological ties between China and the Soviet Union, known as the Sino-Soviet split, is considered a pivotal moment in Cold War history. Extensive scholarly study has been conducted over the past few decades to uncover its causes, but researchers have yet to reach a consensus. This study explores the views of Russian and Western academics regarding the origins of the communist superpowers’ split, with an emphasis on the part played by ideological, geopolitical, and subjective factors. The research findings indicate that the breakdown of their relationship cannot be attributed to a singular cause; rather, a multitude of factors, such as ideological differences, geopolitical interests, and interpersonal dynamics, interacted in a complex manner. Authors from both Russia and the West offer insightful accounts of the causes of the conflict. By working in concert, their differing perspectives create a thorough, inclusive and reliable narrative of how the division came about. In light of ongoing tensions between the US, China and Russia, a comprehensive understanding of the causes of the Sino-Soviet split provides valuable insights into the current state of international politics.

In 1950, the People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Soviet Union (USSR) formalized a political, economic, and military alliance. By 1962, this partnership had collapsed under a cloud of mutual acrimony, which gave way to a series of armed clashes seven years later that almost exploded into full‐blown war. The two nations split apart due to a host of factors. Chief among these were disputes over interpretations of Marxism and relationships with Western states, negative relationships between Chinese and Soviet officials, and the alliance's inherent inequality. From the day the treaty was signed, the Soviets treated China as their junior partner. China's long history of suffering under colonial rule left many Chinese officials angry at such treatment, as they thought it smacked of Russian imperialism. The split had major consequences for China and the USSR. Their shared rancor belied notions of communist unity as both states competed for the loyalties of international leftist movements. The former allies never officially reconciled.
