In addressing the Boxer Rebellion, I would have pursued a diplomatic approach that aimed at understanding and addressing the underlying issues while respecting China's sovereignty. While acknowledging the Boxers' grievances against foreign influence, I would have advocated for open dialogue to address concerns and foster cooperation. Combining elements from both sides, I would have supported efforts to protect foreign nationals and interests but also emphasized the importance of respecting China's internal affairs. A balanced approach that values diplomacy, cultural understanding, and cooperation would have been my preferred strategy to navigate the complexities of the Boxer Rebellion.
