The U-2 Incident occurred in May of 1960, and was when a U.S. U-2 spy plane was shot down in Soviet airspace, and the pilot captured and imprisoned. This caused President Eisenhower to come forward and admitted that the CIA has been flying spy missions over the USSR for several years. The pilot that was captured had been sent to prison for 10 years on charges of committing espionage. This increased the already boiling tensions between the two nations because there was a planned meeting between Eisenhower and Russian leader Nikita Krushchev that was supposed to improve relations. I hope this helps :)

How did Mao's campaigns impacted the Chinese people
Zarrin [17]

The policies of Chairman Mao Zedong were like a mountain range—full of high points as well as dangerous low points.

There is no denying that Mao's policies shaped a nation and formed the foundation of modern-day China. However, the number of lives, dreams, and aspirations that were lost as he brought his will down upon the people can never be recovered. The Great Leap Forward, the Cult of Mao, the Cultural Revolution, the Hundred Flowers policies, as well as his standpoint on women's rights, are all important aspects of China under Mao. Modern China cannot be understood without studying this period of history.
