Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Alliance

Not to be confused with Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship, Alliance and Mutual Assistance.

The Treaty of Friendship and Alliance (Traditional Chinese:中蘇友好同盟條約) is a 1945 treaty signed by Republic of China (ROC) and Soviet Union at 14 August. At the time, Soviet and Mongolian troops were occupying Inner Mongolia and other Chinese territory, having seized it from the Japanese during World War II. In a declaration made in connection with the treaty, the ROC accepted the independence of Mongolia within its previous borders (disavowing any Pan-Mongolist intentions of the occupiers), provided that a referendum on the issue be held.[1]
