The NATO U.S. aircraft bombing of the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade at midnight May 7, 1999 has caused three Chinese nationals killed and twenty injured. Although the U.S. government explained that was a "mistake" and offer condolences immediately after the incident, student led anti-U.S. violent demonstration began milling around the U.S. embassy and consulate offices in China. Soon after, Chinese government announced the suspension of the official exchange and the U.S.-China relationship suffered its most damaging blow since the Tiananmen Incident 1989. However, through crisis management and conflict resolution efforts towards normalizing the relationship, only four month later, in September 1999, President Clinton had a meeting with President Jiang Zemin on the occasion of APEC leaders meeting in Auckland, New Zealand. At this point, both countries agreed to put the relationship back on normal and recover a degree of communication. This paper analyzes the process of crisis management and the conflict resolution efforts to recover the relationship in terms of Chinese foreign policy. By dividing into three stages, first, the response immediately after the bombing, second, the maintenance of domestic stability and negotiation with the U.S., and the last, recovering and normalizing the relationship, this article tries to examine how Chinese government had managed and finally solved the serious crisis.
