Wu Chaoshu (traditional Chinese: 伍朝樞; simplified Chinese: 伍朝枢; Wade–Giles: Wu Ch'ao-shu; 23 May 1887 – 3 January 1934), also known as C.C. Wu, was a Chinese diplomat and politician. He was Foreign Minister of the Republic of China in 1927–28, and was Minister to the United States from 1928 to 1931.[1]

Biography

Wu was born in Tianjin, the son of former Minister to the United States Wu Tingfang and philanthropist Ho Miu-ling. He went to Atlantic City High School and was valedictorian there in 1904.[2] He graduated from the University of London in 1911.[1] He was elected a member of the Chinese parliament in 1913.[2] In 1917, he joined Sun Yatsen's Constitution Protection Movement, and in 1918 was made Vice-Minister of Foreign Affairs. He remained in this post until 1923, despite Sun's exile and subsequent return.[1] In 1919 he was China's chief delegate to the Versailles Peace Conference.[2] In March 1923, Wu became Foreign Affairs Minister in Sun's government-in-exile. He became Foreign Minister of the Republic of China under Chiang Kai-shek in 1927. He then served as Minister to the United States from 1928 to 1931, and Representative to the League of Nations in 1929–30.[1] He was the delegate to The Hague Conference for the Modification of International Law in 1930. He resigned as Minister to the United States in 1931 as a protest against the supply of arms to the Nanjing government against the rival Cantonese government.[2] In 1934, he died of a stroke in British Hong Kong at the age of 46.[3]

Wu married Pao Fang-ho, and the couple had eight children.[2] Wu's grandson is US federal judge George H. Wu.
