英国参加太平洋作战的战略意图,主要集中在恢复东南亚的殖民地、巩固英美同盟关系以及安抚澳新等自治领三方面。美国军方对英国参战提出反对意见,但罗斯福政府从战后英美合作的政治考虑出发,最终仍然同意了英国的参战要求。英国参加太平洋作战虽然实际的军事贡献有限,但却有力地促成了战时英美同盟关系向战后英美特殊关系的发展。 The strategic intention of the United Kingdom to participate in the Pacific operation has mainly focused on the restoration of the colonies in Southeast Asia, the consolidation of the Anglo-American alliance, and the pacification of self-governing leaders such as Australia and New Zealand. The U.S. military opposed the British participation in the war. However, the Roosevelt administration still agreed with the requirements of the United Kingdom’s participation in the war from the political considerations of post-war Anglo-American cooperation. Although the actual military contributions made by the British to the Pacific Ocean operations were limited, they effectively contributed to the development of the special Sino-U.S. Relations with postwar Britain and the United States.
