The 'Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship, Alliance and Mutual Assistance' (Chinese: 中苏友好同盟互助条约, Pinyin: Zhōng-Sū Yǒuhǎo Tóngméng Hùzhù Tiáoyuè), or 'Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Alliance' for short, is the treaty of alliance concluded between the People's Republic of China and the Soviet Union in February 1950, after difficult negotiations in Moscow between Mao Zedong and Joseph Stalin. The treaty did not prevent relations between Beijing and Moscow from drastic deterioration in the late 1950s - early 1960s, at the time of the Sino-Soviet split. The treaty expired in 1979.
