Answer 2

D. The influence of the Communist party weakened.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to continue its trade relations with China, the US proposed the Open door policy. John Hay in 1899, under the presidentship of McKinley, implemented this policy.

This aimed at expansion and globalization of the European countries.

This policy was followed from the end of 19th century till the beginning of 20th century and foreign countries gained access to the Chinese market. The foreign influence increased in China while the influence of US was minimal.

This policy was welcomed by Japan but this proposal was also questioned by Japan several times. As a result, conflict amidst Japan and China and United States, on one side, developed.
