The Three Communiqués or Three Joint Communiqués (Chinese: 三个联合公报) are a collection of three joint statements made by the governments of the United States and the People's Republic of China (P.R.C.).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Communiqu%C3%A9s
The first communiqué (February 28, 1972), known as the Shanghai Communiqué, summarizes the landmark dialogue begun by President Richard Nixon and Premier Zhou Enlai during February 1972. Some of the issues addressed in this communiqué include the two sides' views on Vietnam, the Korean Peninsula, India and Pakistan and the Kashmir region, and perhaps most importantly, the Taiwan (Republic of China) issue (i.e., Taiwan's political status). Essentially, both sides agreed to respect each other's national sovereignty and territorial integrity. The United States formally acknowledged that "all Chinese on either side of the Taiwan Strait maintain there is but one China".
The second communiqué (January 1, 1979), the Joint Communiqué on the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations, formally announces the commencement of normal relations between the United States and the People's Republic of China. In so doing, the United States recognized that the government of the People's Republic of China was the sole legal government of China. In addition, the United States government declared that it would end formal political relations with the Republic of China ("Taiwan") while preserving economic and cultural ties. Both sides reaffirmed their wish to reduce the risk of international conflict as well as avoidance of hegemony of any nation in the Asia-Pacific region.
The third and final communiqué (August 17, 1982), also known as August 17th communiqué, reaffirms the desire of both sides to further strengthen economic, cultural, educational, scientific, and technological ties. Both sides also reaffirmed the statements made about the Taiwan issue in the previous communiqué. Although no definitive conclusions were reached on the issue of arms sale to Taiwan, the United States did declare its intent to gradually decrease its sale of arms to Taiwan.
A declassified cable sent on July 10, 1982 from Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger to AIT director James R. Lilley explained that reducing arms sales to Taiwan would be contingent on the commitment of the PRC to a peace across the Taiwan Strait.[2] Afterwards, the US unilaterally complemented the third communique by issuing the Six Assurances to Taiwan.

@FisherGrubb OK so you want to live in an individualistic society, China is not stopping you, you shouldn't worry about the Chinese people either, because they might not think like you and they are capable of thinking for themselves too, they have their priority and concerns that are different from yours, China is not implementing their systems in your society, then you shouldn't force your way of living/thinking upon them, so all good, you are I have to say a typical Westerner that thinks everyone in the world ought to think like you because you know better than them, but do you? And you shouldn't compare the Soviet to China, because what do they have in common? Certainly not as much as you think if not very very little. China is NOT the West.

Many Taiwanese have been brainwashed by the KMT and the DPP governments to hate Mainland China (Chinese), using the same political ideology bias and racial superiority the West uses against Mainland socialist China, problem is the US is actively dividing China by arming separatists in Taiwan, without these provocations, Mainland China is pretty happy to leave Taiwan alone, Taiwan is hijacked by the Western imperialist powers for the purpose to contain China, it is a Chinese territory so therefore it matters to all Chinese people living in it, especially the 1.4 billion Chinese on the Mainland, you have no idea how much China suffered from (Western) imperialism in the past, Taiwan has been a part of that 100 year of humiliation and ''carving up'' of China by Western powers, the Chinese people can not allow any more aggression from the West, it has a right to defend its territory from being divided away.

''China Uncensored'' is created by Falungong, an anti China religious cult funded by the CIA that pushes out anti China/Chinese lies and smears to demonize China. At the begining, it was just a religion based on meditation and exercise but its extreme teachings led to many cultish gatherings and deaths, so the Chinese government banned it, that was when it became full on anti China/Chinese government and the West took advantage of the situation and funded them to carry out its anti China agenda. If you are truly interested in China, you should keep yourself away from ''China Uncensored'', ''Epoch times'', ''NTD'' and other Falungong funded outlets. There are a number of China based Youtubers who show a true China in their videos, you might have discovered them by now since I am only replying to your comment almost a year later, but if not, check out ''Barrett'', ''Daniel Dumbrill'', ''the JaYoe Nation'' and ''Cyrus Janssen''.
I am a Chinese, I can tell you that most so called '' China expert'' in your Western media are either liars or genuinely clueless about China, what they have in common is to push out the anti China agenda for interests groups. You are right, China is not looking to take over the world, don't want to topple governments, they aren't looking to expand militarily or colonise any country, they are only interested in win win cooperation. China does not have the US style of democracy but its government enjoys the support of overwhelming majority of the Chinese population, the Chinese have never been so proud, because the Chinese government had made Chinese people's lives better, more confident, unless you fully understand the Chinese history, you will never fully understand how Chinese people feel today, there are of course many problems in China like in any other society, but most Chinese are happy because they believe their country is on the right path for better future.
