Victory has great impact on other
countries
The victory of the Chinese
People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression had a great impact on the
great cause of the people in other countries to win the victory of the
Anti-Fascist War and to safeguard world peace, said President Hu.
"For a long time, we Chinese
contained and pinned down the mainforces of Japanese militarism in the China
Theater, and annihilated more than 1.5 million Japanese troops," said Hu when
delivering a speech marking the 60th anniversary of victory over Japanese
aggressors and fascists during the World War II.
"This played a decisive role in
the total defeat of Japanese aggressors," he said.
The war of resistance, according
to Hu, lent a strategic support to battles of China's allies, assisted the
strategic operations in the Europe and Pacific theaters, and restrained and
disrupted the attempt of Japanese, German and Italian Fascists to coordinate
their strategic operations.
"As a major rear base of the
Allied Forces against Japan in the Asia-Pacific region, China provided its
allies with a great deal of strategic material and military intelligence," he
said.
He said the war constitutes a
glorious page in the history of the World Anti-Fascist War, for it broke out
much earlier and lasted the longest.
"The victory of the war in China sets a shining example of the weak vanquishing the strong for the people all over the world and boosted the confidence and morale of the oppressed and victimized nations to carry on their liberation wars," he said.
