High Level Cuban Delegation Visits China

One of the great political delusions of our era is the premise that China has abandoned Marxism-Leninism and is on the road to capitalism.

China is happy to use capitalism to build up its economic power base, just as Lenin used his capitalistic New Economic Policy in the '20s to save the near bankrupt Soviet regime.

Commentators at the time crowed that the Soviet socialist experiment had failed and that Russia would return to capitalism.

A study of China's foreign policy offers clues as to the Communist Party of China's real allegiance.

I do not think that China really has abandon Communism. Everything is still state controlled and what's more the seeming transition from scoialism to Capitalism was approved by the very foundation the left-wing monster Mao Zedong setup. It's all about the same sort of disinformation that Anatoliy Golitsyn predicted of how Communism will "fall" in Eastern Europe, Russia and Central Asia.
