Brilliant interview - so much we can learn about how to deal with China from listening to the late Dr Kissinger. An interesting perspective on how they view things through their eyes. How they interpret our behavior
dude thats all smoke and mirrors! Do you guys not understand in 2024 that they all do global business? Apple, Starbucks, Tesla, KFC... just a few western or US companies that operate from China. Kissinger was one of the main men introducing this and you still believe in that national illusion...

The Chinese saga of reviewing historic past presents a factual history of a people from the seat of global sovereignty that ruled or shape a unitied people illustrated by the edifies of the Great walls 26000 kilometers should not be forgotten, the people is tge state and the state is the people.
People realize this now, but they'll always be for the latest war. Thinking back I'd say most people think Vietnam was a mistake and Iraq was...not the cleanest thing overall and a net negative. But that's about it. Every new war we'll always been supportive of, though later down the line we may think it was a slight mistake
I think that Kissinger was wrong about USSR but right about China. He perceived USSR as stable, and he never believed that Berlin Wall could fall until it did, but he did properly understood China as a state with transcendent history beyond politics, unlike a Soviet or Tsarist Empire. Reading his book and chapters about China made me see how crucial they were for the collapse for the communism in Eastern Europe since the Soviets had to move a lot of divisions in Siberia and Inner Mongolia to neutralize the risk of a Chinese invasion. Nixon also wrote a major paper about China before 1968 election when he stressed that the Chinese state would have a similar geopolitical interest in Asia irrespective of the political nature of the regime, and this is something everybody in China understands, unlike in Russia. Thus, it is important to engage China to reduce tensions and to help a more peaceful coexistence.
As a Chinese, I would like to say that the Cultural Revolution was introduced in my country's political book "Modern History and Outline of Modern History" (this book is authoritative and must be studied by all Chinese college students). First of all, the Cultural Revolution was defined as a civil strife. The cause of the Cultural Revolution was the severe external environment (infiltration of imperialism) and the rapid deterioration of Sino-Soviet relations, which affected the judgment of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on the domestic political situation. Moreover, the CCP quickly entered socialism after experiencing a long war. It lacks experience in how to build socialism in an economically and culturally backward country, and it is easy to follow some methods and experiences that worked during the war. The Cultural Revolution was also launched to prevent capitalist counterattacks and corrupt privileges and bureaucracy within the Communist Party. Then the story of the Cultural Revolution was introduced, and the final evaluation was: "History has shown that the Cultural Revolution was a civil strife that was mistakenly launched by leaders and exploited by counter-revolutionary groups, bringing serious disasters to the party, the country and the people of all ethnic groups." More questions can be found in the "Resolution on Certain Historical Issues of the Party Since the Founding of the People's Republic of China", so I hope that some malicious conspiracy theorists will no longer have to imagine the consequences of discussing the Cultural Revolution in China. This is a serious and solemn event. We Chinese will learn lessons from it. I know CNN and the BBC love to discuss the Cultural Revolution, but the Chinese always look forward, with all the lessons and experiences from our 5,000-year history.
Well am not Chinese but am studying Chinese history (still a beginner) and i have to say am surprised! The Chinese government's description of the cultural revolution is quite accurate to an extraordinary level ! Interesting.
Dr Kissinger's book 'On China" is in a class of its own. The first part contains the best summary of Chinese history in print, anywhere, outside China.
This man said : A government that aims to make a decision on moral perfection, with neither achieve security or perfecttion. He also said: The illegal things we do immediately, the other policies we take a bit of time" Something like that
European Mindset = [[ Crusades, Conquistadores, British Empire, Indian Wars, American Civil War, Napoleonic Wars, First World War, Second World War, Cold War, Israel Conflict, Vietnam War, Cambodia War, Kosovo War, War on Terror, Afghanistan War, Iraq War, Syria War, Libya War, Ukraine War, Israel War ]], these are primitive people.
Chou Enlai says in the near future , 40 yrs or so , China and USA can merge their efforts not to shake the world but to built the world . I cried and cried tbt ! PRAY AND HOPE LIKE THUNDER !
True. Just like East Germany ultimately fell and merged with a unify Germany today. Anything is possible. India is also on the rise and will likely become the next "USA superpower" in our lifetimes
My 7 year old daughter liked this video but she thought ideology should play a greater role than pragmatic realpolitik. Also, there were no princesses.

During the Korean war China demonstrated that they were capable of culturally deconstructing any enemy and then reassimilating it into their cultural ways from the root base. Something the Us didn't know about until then. The Us and Russia realized the dangers from Chinese culture and capabilities and agreed to a way of countering the expansionist power and strength of an homogeneous culture that didn't know to other ways and cultures. They agreed to the cold war which materialized from the 60's to the 80's mostly. In fact what causes conflicting issues among trespassing frontiers between two different countries is their external differences with respect to their internal homogeneity among their cultural behaviours and that is probably an important geopolitical fact for international agreements that have last even for 300 years .
If USA to have any chance of standing against, competing with, and surviving China; she also must become a Little communist like China has become a little capitalist.
Just bought “Kissinger on China “ Kindle ebook n read the first chapter “The Singularity of China “ which recount the “forever existed “” myth” ( my words)of the Chinese Civilization vs the Concept of Nation State ( PRC leaders still think they are governing a Civilization from “ The Rejuvenation of the Chinese People “). Dr. Kissinger is “right” in his opinion about China/Chinese Civilization/Chinese History , but this approach feels “Clinical or Surgical “ n detached. He n President Nixon saw the world also in this clinical/ surgical view to open up China to offset USSR. They did the RIGHT thing. But Nations n Civilizations are driven n based on the People, from the bottom up. Now in 2023, 1.4 billions Chinese, the bone n flesh bodies, are driving China into the modern era through their labour n knowledge in Science n Technology n this concept of Nation State n its practicalities will be more dominating.

For Mao the real revolution wasn't chasing away Chiang Kai Shek in 1949, but the one he started in 1965 called the Cultural revolution which established the Party as the supreme authority above the people and the nation, changing the philosophy of governance that ensured that no one will defeat China. Only after he ensured that he agreed to normalize relation with US. But to Kissinger it was just just toppling the society upside down and he like many Chinese failed to grasp the real intention of the cultural revolution (CR). We can see the wisdom of CR when US and the collective west fails to topple China and instead it is China which is toppling the collective west. Yet Mao's wiedom was never trumpeted and the US thinktank still doesn't know how China is winning and how US is losing.
A system that puts the state over the individual entirely. If this is the system you consider "great" then it is no secret you are complacent to be a number and a slave to very deprived and sadist rulers. The western leadership are corrupt, but at least the Population have the means and resources to change that.
All you really wanted to say was that the US is the victim. Newsflash, America has been playing up victimhood and using that rhetoric for decades. Look at the lead up to this New Cold War against China. Your entire comment was a rote variant of the usual American propaganda. The only "new" material here was your wanton interpretation of events in China and its significance. Time to stop putting words into the mouths of the Chinese, or any other people, just to make the US look good. The human world has suffered enough under the "leadership" of the "free world".

Only your 5000 years history could help Mao to envision the Cultural Revolution so no force could ever stop China from achieving what it was destined to achieve, notice how comrade Xi carefully ensure the evil forces are defeated. HURRRAAAA... Chairman Mao surely felt this moment.@@HenanLei
@@sonarbangla8711 Yes, we respect Chairman Mao Zedong, he is a truly great man. In our historical evaluation, he is a great leader comparable to the four or five greatest emperors in Chinese history (although he is not an emperor, he like to be called teacher). We do not deny his mistakes, but we cherish his achievements even more. His merits come first and his mistakes come second. In the history of our civilization, we traded silk with the ancient Rome, built great buildings with the ancient Egyptians, and sown food at the same time as the ancient Babylonians. On the poker table of history, we have watched opponents appear and end one after another. We are still here, and we are once again on the road to revival. Americans think we are competing for global hegemony and cannot understand Chairman Mao's words that we do not seek hegemony. But the actual situation is that we lost interest in fighting for hegemony two thousand years ago. At that time, China’s territory was bounded by the Siberian wasteland in the north, the Himalayas in the west, the swamp in the south, and the sea in the east. For us, this is the whole world. It was not until the arrival of the British in the 19th century that Western civilization was brought to our door. As a country that has maintained its so-called hegemony in Asia for thousands of years, we know very well that hegemony is not only a danger to other countries, but also to ourselves - look at the current situation in the United States. For us, I think getting food on the table for 1.4 billion people, getting kids educated, getting the old cared are the goals we need to realize.
In July 1971, President Nixon's National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger secretly visited Beijing during a trip to Pakistan, and laid the groundwork for Nixon's visit to China. _ USA support to the Tibetan resistance fighters abruptly ended after US policy changed following President Nixon’s meeting with Chinese premier Zhou Enlai in 1972 to gain more leverage over relations with the Soviet Union, following the Sino-Soviet split.
Thank you for this talk which presents overall a contrast between administrative and political, historical determinism as held up to a mirror of vision, hopes and expectations for the future. The talk also examined the impossibilities of the goals of Maoism ("Mao Zedong thought") and without a messianic, even a cult view towards Mao himself as supreme and incapable of mistakes which Mao apparently had, again, of himself. The revolutionary character of the post - 1949 administration, especially today, in P.R.C. cultivates the establishment of centrism, the power of a supreme leader and the primacy of communism as a party system with an internal left and a right. This makes for systemic and doctrinaire opposition to the outside and given related militarism has concerned parties worried, especially about the way doctrine engenders "will to power". It is sad also from the discussion there is no solution to the pinch this puts the korean situation into, and the insolubility of Afghanistan despite a horrendous war. One one level of analysis, the principles of China's outreach depend more upon the legacy of Zhou En - lai than any other, though this proposes in practice an either / or politically for millions of people in East Asia and in the abroad from China itself. Most of all, this talk inspires dissension from and activism about the human rights issues, issues of freedoms, proper and fair political administration, a proper and judicious view of politics of the exterior to P.R.C. and more on the subject of policy and administration there today. The book brings this out and so much more . . . -- a great work from a great friend and advocate of democracy.
GFC Global's financial crisis did increase the Chinese's confidence in their own economic philosophy and system, which is to build a socialist market economy with Chinese characteristics. I think it did reduce the credibility of the Western Economic System.
He was a great statesman, but I was shocked at his nihilistic view on Afghanistan. He said we could never deal or negotiate with the taliban, and we did just that and left. We still need to try and make a deal with them, to preserve our interest and hold a share of influence in Belt and Road. We could also use Baghram, Herat, and Kandahar and counter balances to Iran, Russia and Pakistan. Big stick first policy ends in failure in Afghanistan.
In hindset we should listened to what the Taliban said to us. They had to defend AQ because of their traditions and Islam. Taliban respected and understood why we had to go in and fight. We should have told the Taliban much respect once Aq was destroyed and osama we should have told the Taliban we both understand each other had to do what we had to do, we don’t dislike you or want a puppet government in Afghanistan. We just can’t get attacked again and we can’t let you be a host to our enemies but afangistan us yours it should be yours. Rule it and if you’re interests align with ours we can do business if someone attacks you yo give us a call but we don’t have any desire to tell you what to do or be here😊
Relationship is all about sharing and caring all natural resources and developed knowledge on mutual understanding. Definitely with us is difficult and against is dangerous that is not right thinking.
He was good to deal with because he was predictable and stable. Doesn’t matter that what he did was abhorrent, at least it was predictable. Wild cards, like Trump, are a problem in IR because even he doesn’t seem to know what he is doing tomorrow.
Hands-down, Rose is the most obnoxious, arrogant interviewer I’ve ever seen. I don’t think a minute goes by where he does not interrupt Kissinger with just his notes from the table.

Charlie rose has been a bit impatient with the old man , observed from a Charlie rose fan here. 😃 but china's problem is not how it deals with outside world, it is how it treats its people .
That's absolutely right. When the Long Dead Gone Soviet had left a Sickle-Hammer Party CCP in China forcing Chinese to listen to the Party to speak, to poop and to think, Chinese will follow the order to steal, to break the rules and to destroy the opponent. Chinese are possessed by the Long Dead Gone Soviet Sickle-Hammer ancestors evil spirit. Majority Chinese have no soul.
One has no choice but to admire and respect Western Civilization. There was never a period in human history where the West wasnt at the pinnacle of geopolitics, culture, dominance, and technology. From Ancient Greece 6000 years ago to the Roman Empire, France, Spain, then finally the biggest Empire of all the British, and now the USA... the West has never ceased expanding and influencing the world. I mean just look at China's President Xi the most powerful man in Asia. even he has to wear Western clothing, speak English today. It speaks to the uttter dominance of the West througout millennia.
A bit early, I agree. But while I know realpolitik was a factor, I wish Kissinger would have spoken frankly about CCP corruption, which used distant history as a smokescreen for its behavior.
People thought him to be a China expert. The guy was a sham. All the words coming from his mouth are egregious platitudes. All his observations are superficial proving how far off the mark he was in his appraisal of East Taiwan.

The only "new" material here was your wanton interpretation of events in China and its significance. Time to stop putting words into the mouths of the Chinese, or any other people, just to make the US look good. The human world has suffered enough under the "leadership" of the "free world".
As a Chinese, I would like to say that the Cultural Revolution was introduced in my country's official political book "Modern History and Outline of Modern History" (this book is authoritative and must be studied by all Chinese college students). First of all, the Cultural Revolution was defined as a civil strife. The cause of the Cultural Revolution was the severe external environment (infiltration of imperialism) and the rapid deterioration of Sino-Soviet relations, which affected the judgment of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on the domestic political situation. Moreover, the CCP quickly entered socialism after experiencing a long war. It lacks experience in how to build socialism in an economically and culturally backward country, and it is easy to follow some methods and experiences that worked during the war. The Cultural Revolution was also launched to prevent capitalist counterattacks and corrupt privileges and bureaucracy within the Communist Party. Then the story of the Cultural Revolution was introduced, and the final evaluation was: "History has shown that the Cultural Revolution was a civil strife that was mistakenly launched by leaders and exploited by counter-revolutionary groups, bringing serious disasters to the party, the country and the people of all ethnic groups." More questions can be found in the "Resolution on Certain Historical Issues of the Party Since the Founding of the People's Republic of China", so I hope that some malicious conspiracy theorists will no longer have to imagine the consequences of discussing the Cultural Revolution in China. This is a serious and solemn event. We Chinese will learn lessons from it. I know CNN and the BBC love to discuss the Cultural Revolution, but the Chinese always look forward, with all the lessons and experiences from our 5,000-year history.
Only your 5000 years history could help Mao to envision the Cultural Revolution so no force could ever stop China from achieving what it was destined to achieve, notice how comrade Xi carefully ensure the evil forces are defeated. HURRRAAAA... Chairman Mao surely felt this moment.@@HenanLei
@@sonarbangla8711 Yes, we respect Chairman Mao Zedong, he is a truly great man. In our historical evaluation, he is a great leader comparable to the four or five greatest emperors in Chinese history (although he is not an emperor, he like to be called teacher). We do not deny his mistakes, but we cherish his achievements even more. His merits come first and his mistakes come second. In the history of our civilization, we traded silk with the ancient Rome, built great buildings with the ancient Egyptians, and sown food at the same time as the ancient Babylonians. On the poker table of history, we have watched opponents appear and end one after another. We are still here, and we are once again on the road to revival. Americans think we are competing for global hegemony and cannot understand Chairman Mao's words that we do not seek hegemony. But the actual situation is that we lost interest in fighting for hegemony two thousand years ago. At that time, China’s territory was bounded by the Siberian wasteland in the north, the Himalayas in the west, the swamp in the south, and the sea in the east. For us, this is the whole world. It was not until the arrival of the British in the 19th century that Western civilization was brought to our door. As a country that has maintained its so-called hegemony in Asia for thousands of years, we know very well that hegemony is not only a danger to other countries, but also to ourselves - look at the current situation in the United States. For us, I think getting food on the table for 1.4 billion people, getting kids educated, getting the old cared are the goals we need to realize.
In July 1971, President Nixon's National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger secretly visited Beijing during a trip to Pakistan, and laid the groundwork for Nixon's visit to China.

USA support to the Tibetan resistance fighters abruptly ended after US policy changed following President Nixon’s meeting with Chinese premier Zhou Enlai in 1972 to gain more leverage over relations with the Soviet Union, following the Sino-Soviet split.
Thank you for this talk which presents overall a contrast between administrative and political, historical determinism as held up to a mirror of vision, hopes and expectations for the future. The talk also examined the impossibilities of the goals of Maoism ("Mao Zedong thought") and without a messianic, even a cult view towards Mao himself as supreme and incapable of mistakes which Mao apparently had, again, of himself. The revolutionary character of the post - 1949 administration, especially today, in P.R.C. cultivates the establishment of centrism, the power of a supreme leader and the primacy of communism as a party system with an internal left and a right. This makes for systemic and doctrinaire opposition to the outside and given related militarism has concerned parties worried, especially about the way doctrine engenders "will to power". It is sad also from the discussion there is no solution to the pinch this puts the korean situation into, and the insolubility of Afghanistan despite a horrendous war. One one level of analysis, the principles of China's outreach depend more upon the legacy of Zhou En - lai than any other, though this proposes in practice an either / or politically for millions of people in East Asia and in the abroad from China itself. Most of all, this talk inspires dissension from and activism about the human rights issues, issues of freedoms, proper and fair political administration, a proper and judicious view of politics of the exterior to P.R.C. and more on the subject of policy and administration there today. The book brings this out and so much more . . . -- a great work from a great friend and advocate of democracy.
GFC Global's financial crisis did increase the Chinese's confidence in their own economic philosophy and system, which is to build a socialist market economy with Chinese characteristics.
I think it did reduce the credibility of the Western Economic System.
Henry A gift to America. Henry Kissinger the most gifted.
Awesome.

Looking at the past is useful if its value somehow remain current and useful. Otherwise, it is as burdensome as an old man living in the past.
1972 WAS HIS VISIT. IN 1971 INDIA/RUSSIA FOUGHT PAKISTAN/USA. HE STATES IN 2011 THAT THE USA GOLDEN AGE IS AHEAD OF THEM. DOES IT LOOK SO TODAY?
So interesting.

1:29 what? From the first war you can learn what? And from the second war you learn what?
He goes into detail on that in the book, it's a little too long to explain the entire anectdote in the interview.
He was a great statesman, but I was shocked at his nihilistic view on Afghanistan. He said we could never deal or negotiate with the taliban, and we did just that and left. We still need to try and make a deal with them, to preserve our interest and hold a share of influence in Belt and Road. We could also use Baghram, Herat, and Kandahar and counter balances to Iran, Russia and Pakistan. Big stick first policy ends in failure in Afghanistan.
In hindset we should listened to what the Taliban said to us. They had to defend AQ because of their traditions and Islam. Taliban respected and understood why we had to go in and fight. We should have told the Taliban much respect once Aq was destroyed and osama we should have told the Taliban we both understand each other had to do what we had to do, we don’t dislike you or want a puppet government in Afghanistan. We just can’t get attacked again and we can’t let you be a host to our enemies but afangistan us yours it should be yours. Rule it and if you’re interests align with ours we can do business if someone attacks you yo give us a call but we don’t have any desire to tell you what to do or be here😊
Why is Charlie speaking too fast
I've also noticed that he talks so fast. I thought at first I had it set to play at twice the speed.

I always liked listening to Kissinger.
You always seem to have interviews of any one who is anybody.
Henry is an absolute scumbag!
Charlie Rose is the best!

He was good to deal with because he was predictable and stable. Doesn’t matter that what he did was abhorrent, at least it was predictable.
Wild cards, like Trump, are a problem in IR because even he doesn’t seem to know what he is doing tomorrow.

Actually unsecular more based on ethics and China such as Confucius to Buddhism in question the last tenet.
Hands-down, Rose is the most obnoxious, arrogant interviewer I’ve ever seen. I don’t think a minute goes by where he does not interrupt Kissinger with just his notes from the table.

Charlie rose has been a bit impatient with the old man , observed from a Charlie rose fan here. 😃 but china's problem is not how it deals with outside world, it is how it treats its people .
That's absolutely right. When the Long Dead Gone Soviet had left a Sickle-Hammer Party CCP in China forcing Chinese to listen to the Party to speak, to poop and to think, Chinese will follow the order to steal, to break the rules and to destroy the opponent. Chinese are possessed by the Long Dead Gone Soviet Sickle-Hammer ancestors evil spirit. Majority Chinese have no soul.
You mean raising 800m people out of poverty, housing, education and healthcare? Damn, they sure are mistreating their population 😂😂😂
Seems like a lovely man
One has no choice but to admire and respect Western Civilization. There was never a period in human history where the West wasnt at the pinnacle of geopolitics, culture, dominance, and technology. From Ancient Greece 6000 years ago to the Roman Empire, France, Spain, then finally the biggest Empire of all the British, and now the USA... the West has never ceased expanding and influencing the world. I mean just look at China's President Xi the most powerful man in Asia. even he has to wear Western clothing, speak English today. It speaks to the uttter dominance of the West througout millennia.
The most dangerous person who hate Ethiopia.
He was so smart and a complete psychopath war criminal on the other hand.
i dont blame him political life requires machiaviliasim
A bit early, I agree. But while I know realpolitik was a factor, I wish Kissinger would have spoken frankly about CCP corruption, which used distant history as a smokescreen for its behavior.
American government is also totally corrupt rich people control everything
