冷战的特点是相对平静的对抗时期和一些真正的战争

    冷战的特点是相对平静的对抗时期和一些真正的战争，有时被称为

美国和苏联领导的两个集团之间的 "亲子战争"。

对1945年后的美苏关系的评价是由两个口号构成的：冷战和雅尔塔。

冷战象征着完全的对立。

相反，

雅尔塔则象征着相互迁就

（或对某些人来说是美国对苏联的 "卖身"）。1

   冷战在欧洲是 "冷 "的，

但在亚洲是相当 "热 "的。”

冷 "是指美国和苏联在任何时候都不对对方使用军队作战。

雅尔塔协议是一个协议，

即不会有暴力，双方都不会试图改变1945年建立的边界，主要是在欧洲。

2 中共和仰光如何看待冷战，尤其是亚洲的热战？

在冷战初期，这两个国家如何看待自己在世界中的地位？

1950年代初，这两个新政权是如何看待对方的？

对这些问题的回答对理解1949年至1953年的中缅关系非常重要。

   The Cold War featured periods of relatively calm confrontation and some real wars, sometimes called “proXy wars” between two blocs led by the U. S. and the Soviet Union. The evaluation of the U. S. –USSR relationship during the post-1945 years is configured by two slogans: the Cold War and Yalta. The Cold War symbolized total antagonism. Yalta, to the contrary, symbolized mutual accommodation (or for some a “sell-out” by the U. S. to the USSR). 1

   The Cold War was “cold” in Europe, but it was quite “hot” in Asia. It was “cold” in that neither the U. S. nor the Soviet Union used its military in combat against the other at any time. The Yalta agreement was an agreement that there would be no violence, and that neither side would attempt to change the frontiers, primarily in Europe, that were established in 1945. 2 How did the CCP【中国共产党】 and Rangoon【仰光】 perceive the Cold War, especially the hot war in Asia? How did the two countries see their places in the world in the early period of Cold War? How did the two new regimes think of each other in the early 1950s? Answers to these questions are important to understand China–Burma relations from 1949 to 1953.
