Chapter 89 Letter to Chen Jinkun[1]
(January 16, 1947)
Comrade Jin Kun:
Great demonstration and recitation.It is necessary to study law from a new point of view.New-democratic laws differ from socialist laws on the one hand, and from all capitalist laws in Europe, the United States, and Japan on the other. Please study them here.The current peace talks proposed by the United States and Chiang Kai-shek, like all previous peace talks, are all deceitful. Because of military failures, they are trying to gain a rest time and regroup the army to fight again. We must not be fooled.Respectfully.Good luck!
Mao Zedong
January 16
According to the "Selected Letters of Mao Zedong" published by People's Publishing House in 1983.
