The Korean peninsula is crucial to China’s political, economic and security interests because of a combination of geographic, historical, and political circumstances. China’s economic reforms and the end of the Cold War both provided new challenges and opportunities for Northeast Asian politics. This article describes China’s position on Korean unification.
