Historical facts proved that the Warsaw channel did not progress as smoothly as Washington had ex- pected but America's expectations were basically fulfilled:the American side expressed its aspiration for improving its relations with China and made clear its stand that it would not collaborate with the Soviet Union to dominate the affairs of Southeast Asia.With the Warsaw channel having fulfilled its mission,Washington switched its contacts with Beijing to the Pakistan channel.
