Hello,
I am Klara thanks for posting your question on brainly, unfortunately we are having troi
The Sino-Vietnamese War (Vietnamese: Chiến tranh biên giới Việt-Trung; simplified Chinese: 中越战争; traditional Chinese:中越戰爭; pinyin: Zhōng-Yuè Zhànzhēng), also known as the Third Indochina War, was a brief border war fought between the People's Republic of China and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam in early 1979. China launched the offensive in response to Vietnam's invasion and occupation of Cambodia in 1978 (which ended the rule of the Chinese-backed Khmer Rouge).[17]Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger wrote that Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping saw this as a Soviet attempt "to extend its evil tentacles to Southeast Asia and...carry out expansion there", which reflected the long-standing Sino-Soviet split.[18] Kissinger also noted that "[w]hatever the shortcomings of its execution, the Chinese campaign reflected a serious, long-term strategic analysis".[19]
The Chinese entered northern Vietnam and captured some of the cities near the border. On March 6, 1979, China declared that the gate to Hanoi was open and that their punitive mission had been achieved. Chinese forces retreated back across the Vietnamese border into China. Both China and Vietnam claimed victory in the last of the Indochina Wars of the 20th century; as Vietnamese troops remained in Cambodia until 1989, it can be said that China failed to achieve the goal of dissuading Vietnam from involvement in Cambodia. Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the Sino-Vietnamese border was finalized.
China demonstrated to its Cold War Communist adversary, the Soviet Union, that they were unable to protect their new Vietnamese ally.[20] Following worsening relations between the Soviet Union and China as a result of the Sino-Soviet split, as many as 1.5 million Chinese troops were stationed along the Soviet-Chinese border, in preparation for a full-scale war.
Answer: He speaks about morals after having just abandoned his wife at a roadside diner.
Flannery O'Connor was an American novelist, short story writer and essayist. In her story "The Life You Save May Be Your Own," she tells the story of Shiftlet, a man who arrives to a farm, where he gets offered shelter in exchange for work. After insistence from the lady who owns the farm, he ends up marrying the woman's daughter, who is deaf and mute. After the wedding, the girl and Shiflet go on their honeymoon, and they stop at a diner to eat. The girl falls asleep at the table and Shiftlet leaves the diner, abandoning her. As he drives off, he picks up a hitchhiker, and this is where the dialogue appears. Shiftlet talks to the hitchhiker about how wonderful his mother was, and how important it is to appreciate mothers.
The scene is ironic because Shiftlet is discussing the importance of morality, and of how his mother taught him right from wrong, yet he just abandoned his wife at a diner, which is a clear contradiction and shows that his moral code is not the best.
