Wasn't it Nixon (and Kissinger) who opened a dialogue with the Chinese back in the Early 1970's?
U.S. President Richard Nixon's 1972 visit to the People's Republic of China (PRC) was an important strategic and diplomatic overture that marked the culmination of the Nixon administration's resumption of harmonious relations between the United States and mainland China after years of diplomatic isolation.[1] The seven-day official visit to three Chinese cities was the first time a U.S. president had visited the PRC; Nixon's arrival in Beijing ended 25 years of no communication or diplomatic ties between the two countries and was the key step in normalizing relations between the U.S. and the PRC. Nixon visited the PRC to gain more leverage over relations with the Soviet Union. The normalization of ties culminated in 1979, when the U.S. established full diplomatic relations with the PRC.

After his trip...he wrote a book...Nixon was very impressed by what China was becoming,but also very worried....An example of what Nixon was trying to warn the world...
----------'There was one other good example....In the late 1930's ,The Hero of Flight... Charles Lindbergh visited Germany....He saw all the things and production twords war...The Germans were doing...Hitler was impressed by the American Hero,and Lindey used that to explore German places....When he returned to the USA ,he warned Washington,Congress,Pres.etc....But he was dubbed a German sympathizer,by the Left media.... Because,he was the poster boy for the America 1st movement back in the 1930's....In fact,FDR treated Lindey like crap,kept him( a Col. In the Army Air Corps. Res)...Out of WW2 until 1944,when Lindey was allowed to fly ,it was in the Pacific War...No one would listen to Lindbergh about what Germany was doing,as Germany prepared for war.......Much like ,no one listened to Nixon when he came back from his China visit in the 70's......
