China Eyes Diplomatic Break With Germany Over War Decree
The Chinese foreign office warned on February 9 that Germany would face severed ties if the unrestricted submarine warfare decree went into effect. On March 4 the cabinet urged break, but President Li Yuan-Heng blocked ministers’ move and Premier Tuan Chi-Jui resigned. Three days later the Premier returned after Li granted the cabinet power over foreign policy and a parliamentary vote on breaking with Germany. Reports say China weighed severance versus an entente alliance as the foreign minister sought Entente terms for alliance possibility.
