China
Summary: During the 1960s and early 1970s, relations between the United States and China were tense. The United States coordinated an international embargo of China and prohibited U.S. citizens from visiting China. To enhance foreign relations between the two countries, Senator Dole was sent to China in 1985, only 13 years after President Nixon’s historic visit.
