I would like to clarify this short description for period in office most important:
{{Short description|Leader of China from 1949 to 1976}}

Inconsistency regarding Stalin's Birthday
Mao is photographed with Stalin in 1949 celebrating Stalin's 71st birthday, however in the paragraph covering Mao's State Visits, it states that Mao visited Stalin to celebrate his 70th birthday. Stalin was born in 1878 according to the Wikipedia page on him. 150.160.109.107 (talk) 16:34, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- Cite 223 establishes that Stalin had his 70th birthday in 1949 but doesn't talk about when Mao's state visit was. Simonm223 (talk) 16:38, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
