In the summer of 1940, Britain and France, deeply involved in the European war blocked China's main channels to obtain strategic goods from abroad under the pressure of Japan. As a result, China, in the middle of the war against Japanese invasion, encountered a serious international crisis lasting for three months. Based on Chiang Kai-Shek's diary and other historical materials, this paper describes how Chiang dealt with the crisis in 6 sections and concludes with the following points: (1) In general, China must take Japan as the only enemy and strengthen ties with any other country; (2) end the frosty relation with Germany after the breakout of the war in Europe and forge better relations with it while maintaining friendly relations with Britain and America; (3) analyze the merits and demerits of peace or war with Japan and seek the chance of peace with the minimum requests accepted; (4) regarding the European War and the countries involved: suppress the extremists' opinion among government's leadership, and take no side in Europe until the end. The two key factors that led to Chiang's decision are his observation of Japan's policy and his judgment of the current and future relations among Germany, USSR, Britain and America. This article also demonstrates that Chiang's political philosophy as seen in the process of dealing with this crisis is superior to others.
