Zhou served under Mao Zedong and was instrumental in consolidating the control of the Communist Party's rise to power, forming foreign policy, and developing the Chinese economy. Advocating peaceful coexistence with the West after the stalemated Korean War, he participated in the 1954 Geneva Conference and helped orchestrate Richard Nixon's 1972 visit to China. He helped devise policies regarding the bitter disputes with the U.S., Taiwan, the Soviet Union (after 1960), India and Vietnam. Zhou is best known as the long-time top aide to Mao Zedong, specializing in foreign policy. . Zhou En-lai & the "Red Guards": Although Zhou En-lai announced the formal beginning of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution on 1 May 1966 at a massive rally to celebrate International Workers Day in Tian'anmen, it was not until 16 May that the Politburo established the Cultural Revolution Group, comprising Jiang Qing and other radicals. Although there is a general belief that the Palace Museum escaped the depredations of the Cultural Revolution, thanks to protection extended by Premier Zhou Enlai, this is not entirely true.
