On August 8, the commemorating event of the 140th birth anniversary of General Joseph Stilwell, organized by Stilwell Research Center (China) and supported by iGCU, was held in Chongqing. More than 150 attendees, including representatives of the Chinese and American governments, academia, businesses, and media, participated in the events, including Gen. Stilwell’s great-granddaughters, Susan Mai Easterbrook Cole, and Nancy Easterbrook Millward.
In the speech of Ms. Jan Berris (Vice President of NCUSCR; Invited Expert of iGCU), the current state of China-US relations was mentioned. She believes both nations can eventually overcome difficulties, although this requires intense work. “The Stilwell family’s devotion provides a wonderful example to us all of how deep, abiding, and important the China-US friendship can be and how much effort we need to take to make sure that our children can enjoy a fruitful relationship between our two peoples,” said Ms. Berris.
