There are other notable exceptions. Pol Pot was educated in Paris. But I wouldn't be surprised if the Chinese elites being educated in the US did have a big role in the conversion of China to capitalism for example.

I’m not quite sure how you can call China “capitalist”. And even if you did, Nixon opened China up before people had any real ability to study in the US (at least compared to the last few decades).
