More information on Ambassador Jiao Ruoyv

[edit]

According to the citation below, on 1970-April-23, a new Chinese Ambassador ("Li Tun-chuan") to North Korea was announced. The same source notes that the previous Ambassador, "Chiao Jo-yu", had returned to China in mid-1967. So it seems that the timeline should be updated to reflect the fact that during part of the Cultural Revolution, there was no ambassador of China in North Korea (1967-1970).

The source of the info is here: "Quarterly Chronicle and Documentation". The China Quarterly (42). Cambridge University Press on behalf of the School of Oriental and African Studies: 166–186. April–June 1970. Retrieved 27 February 2014.

Additionally, it may be interesting to know that the new Ambassador appointed in 1970 had previously been posted in the Republic of Dahomey (present-day Benin) until January 1966 when Dahomey broke off diplomatic relations with China.

For now I volunteer the information here, hoping that someone more knowledgeable on the topic will make the edit. Thank you.Al83tito (talk) 18:02, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
