Take the case of the Macedonia, with which the ROC established ties this year. Mainland China did not hesitate to go to the extreme length of vetoing a resolution in the UN Security Council to extend the deployment of UN forces in Macedonia, which were installed to keep the war in Kosovo from spilling across the border. The PRC's aim was to force Macedonia to think twice about establishing relations with the ROC.
