How did the united states respond to communist mao zedong's assumption of power in china? (points : 1) with military force by withdrawing u. s. aid with a blockade nothing specific

Well the, U.S. responded with alarm, and supported the anti-communist Kuo Min Tang on the island of Taiwan, whose independence from mainland China is even now supported by the United States, although the Cold War has ended.

So if I had to choose one it would be; 'With military force'.

Hope I helped. :) Thanks for using ! :D

i also belive it was in december 1, 1774
