What supplies did Chiang want to keep for fighting the Chinese Communist Party?

  • Lend-Lease supplies

  • Medical supplies

  • Food supplies

  • Ammunition

Answer

Chiang Kai-shek wanted to keep the Lend-Lease supplies he was receiving from the United States for fighting the Chinese Communist Party, rather than using them to fight the Japanese. He believed that the Chinese Communist Party was a greater threat to his power than the Japanese. This angered the United States, which was providing the supplies to help China fight the Japanese.
