“China’s national defense and army building of strategic intent is consistent, clear, China’s peaceful development, including the United States opportunities within the international community is not the challenge … We hope that the U.S. trend of the times, objective and balanced view of China and the Chinese army, cautious and do more to help the development of bilateral military relations and regional peace and stability of. ”

Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Geng Yansheng January 9 These statements were understood as the outside world for a new round of U.S. military layout, the most direct response.

1 5 March, the Pentagon announced U.S. President Barack Obama called “the maintenance of U.S. global leadership: the 21st century defense priorities,” the report stressed that the U.S. military will continue to strengthen in the Asia Pacific region diplomatic, economic, and military activities, and declared that China’s rise could affect the U.S. economy and security, calling for “China to clarify the strategic intent.”

Subsequently, the U.S. Defense Panetta and other military officials and competitors warned in strong words, “Do not misjudge the situation.” Think of Obama and U.S. troops Fang Gaoguan provocative statement, not difficult to understand why the Chinese military spokesman stressed that the U.S. should be “cautious” the.

Academy of Social Sciences Institute of the U.S. Arms Control and Nonproliferation Center General hongyuan told “World News” reporter, said, “cautious” this argument is actually quite tough, is new strategy for the United States and China as the imaginary enemy’s position strong fight back.

verbal warning the military component of weight

U.S. government and military from time to time in reports, speeches to throw some “China threat” is nothing new things, but by the Obama Pentagon theories of the Asia-Pacific military strategy, and personally challenge to China’s situation is extremely rare.

linked to the United States announced a high-profile return to the Asia-Pacific, which may mean a complete shift the focus of U.S. military strategy in China, intended to pressure China Shiwei Jia has been self-evident.

a Chinese military expert told “World News” reporter pointed out that the report was signed by U.S. President and the Secretary of Defense at the same time round, set the tone of the document, which the Asia-Pacific region as ” The first concerns “can be said that after World War II are unique. One deterrent to China for the speech, the Chinese military position corresponding natural attracted much attention.

Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Geng Yansheng said the United States Department of Defense Defense 5 Strategy Guide published by the Chinese accusations are unfounded, “We will pay close attention to U.S. military strategy to adjust the Asia-Pacific region and the the impact of the global security situation. ”

Geng Yansheng stressed, we all know, China’s national defense and army building of strategic intent is consistent, clear, China’s peaceful development of the international community including the United States is an opportunity rather than challenge.

Geng Yansheng said, “peace and stability in the Asia-Pacific region is the trend, development and prosperity is the desire of the people, and we hope that the U.S. trend of the times, objective and balanced view of China and the Chinese army, cautious, and do more development of military relations between the two countries and conducive to regional peace and stability of things. “

” USA Today “that it was” China’s defense policy focus on the Asia-Pacific American criticism “; the British” Daily Mail ” believes that the United States to strengthen its military presence in the Asia-Pacific, so China to warn “the U.S. action to be careful” … …

whether the Western media for what interpretation made by the Chinese military warned the United States out of the weight, or cause widespread concern in the West, intended to convey the sound and naturally for the U.S. government and a deep understanding of the U.S. military.

Academy of Social Sciences Institute of the U.S. Arms Control and Nonproliferation Center General hongyuan told “World News” reporter, that throws new U.S. military strategy is the first time into China “sight” of them, so will China on Sino-US relations, military relations in doubt, turn to the United States issued a harsh criticism.

hongyuan that “cautious” Although this statement more polite on the surface, but it is strategic thinking and the United States with China as the imaginary enemy made a profound criticism of this argument is essentially throw doubt on the United States against China’s new military strategy.

However, Associate Professor, School of International Relations, Peking University, told reporters that over thousands of miles, “cautious” to leave room for this argument is a bit like a reminder.

I Miles stressed that “this position more clearly expressed China’s concern on this matter, of course, leave room for, after all, was referred to as Sino-US relationship is not the point of a showdown.”

and beauty contest to be good at bickering

Sino-US military relations are an important part of bilateral relations. In the United States to return to Asia and to further strengthen the military presence against the backdrop of China’s normal military modernization has also been a return to the United States as a barrier.

However, despite U.S. military anti-ship ballistic missile deterrent repeatedly rendering the aircraft carrier, F -20 shocking and so the “China military threat theory”, but in fact the possibility of Sino-US military conflict and small, the two sides battle battlefield positions have been transferred to the trend of public opinion.

that, although the specific ring shouting slogans, but there is little risk of conflict, is a “without splitting” of the contest.

and had a simple response and expressed “regret” is different from today’s Chinese military increasingly focused on active voice, active set the tone.

last July, when the former head of U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Mike Mullen’s visit to China, PLA Chief of General Staff Chen Bingde China had a number of U.S. military action “with respect satisfied.”

for U.S. meddling in the South China Sea issue, Chen Bingde directly to Mullen said China’s claim on the South China Sea is clear and consistent principle of “shelving disputes and seeking common development.”

In addition, “the United States do not have the freedom of navigation for the South China Sea issue to worry about and worry free navigation in the South China Sea region there is no problem.”

for U.S. warships and aircraft reconnaissance in the Chinese coastal waters frequently this issue, Chen Bingde said, “The U.S. military is not necessary to conduct such surveillance in China, hoping the U.S. military from the overall situation into account, reduce and stop such surveillance activities. “

However, high-level Sino-US military direct dialogue opportunities are few, so the military spokesman on a regular basis by a number of specific issues for the natural sound is an optional tool.

time on the Chinese military the new U.S. military strategy in the Asia-Pacific high-profile position, directly and clearly expressed China’s dissatisfaction is a good “bickering” is all about.

Chinese military experts in this regard that “the U.S. side of the misinformation, the rebuttal to refute.”

the United States no longer tolerate its own way

outside the United States in the formulation of national strategy and military strategy, there have been conceited, selfish solipsism dominant mentality, advantage of military support, such distortions mind expanding.

Specifically, the United States strategic interests of concern, international issues, also ask other countries to match or coordinate with, otherwise you’ll do with the United States on or enemies.

“9.11″ terrorist attacks, the United States by the scourge of terrorism on the grounds of Afghanistan, Iraq fight. Formed with the Western allies’ anti-terrorism alliance “at the same time, Pakistan and other countries also requires support and coordinated action.

last year, without warning the U.S. commandos in the case of Osama bin Laden killed on the infiltration of Pakistani territory, and finally completed the “anti-terrorism wish.” Later, U.S. soldiers have to return to the front of a turn in Asia, and respect for China.

Thus, the United States to carry out military action, adjust the strategic direction is a completely do to send its own way, not the slightest regard for the interests and feelings of other countries, or even harmful to make a dangerous action.

for the U.S. “strategic selfish”, like China, the affected countries should naturally be bluntly refuted.

recent period, the U.S. strategy toward China are asking a lot. According to the U.S. “Washington Post” reported on January 9, U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner’s visit to China is bound to strongly urge the Chinese to reduce the import of Iranian oil.

However, Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Cui has been in the media briefing that China and the normal economic and trade relations between Iran and the nuclear energy cooperation with Iran does not matter, should not mix different types of problems. ” China’s legitimate concerns and demands should be respected. ”

Chinese Foreign Ministry, Daniel Asia, Africa Division, said recently that China opposes military action against Iraq, unilaterally against Iraq in some countries to impose economic and energy sanctions. “In the Iraqi economy, trade, energy cooperation is normal and transparent and should not be affected by the sanctions.”

military experts in this regard that “China does not participate in the U.S. sanctions against Iran is normal, China can not follow the United States to run, can not you let what we do, Moreover, there are Chinese oil interests in Iran. ”

I Miles also pointed out that a number of international issues in the United States asked China to meet, but its action is self-made contrary to, “on Iran with the hope that China, but also made in China around series of actions, which is obviously contrary. ”

seen some major international issues in the United States asked China to give up on the tangible benefits to meet at the same time put in Northeast Asia against China’s stance, this completely self-centered strategic interests itself that is not true. If the U.S. continues to this selfish act, is bound to lose the trust of other countries, and even deeper hostility.

Therefore, the Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman said recently the U.S. position is largely in the United States awoke – China is not only unreasonable demands and the United States will not stand toe, there will be targeted with respect refute.

show strong People’s Liberation Army launched missiles?

in solving international problems and maintain the interests, the United States by force of habit and superstition. Therefore, when the United States to make some deterrent against China action alone is sometimes difficult to see the effect of refuting, and the corresponding military action but can play modern wonders.

recent U.S. military action against the Asia-Pacific region more and more. During this period, China’s advanced weapons and equipment is also timely appearance, stealth fighter F -20 debut, the carrier platform sea trials … …

such a move, although China’s military modernization is the normal behavior, but also from an objective to show the effect of combat, so that those who want to rely on force balance, to contain China’s state had to think twice.

Taiwan, “Taipei Times” on January 10 and speculated that the mainland People’s Liberation Army in the New Year before the “waves” -2 submarine-launched ballistic missile was test fired.

reported that the PLA Navy’s two nuclear submarines in the waters near a city in northeast China test-fired six “waves”-2 missiles.

Taiwan, “Defense Ministry spokesman,” Luo Shao and have learned the news of the PLA submarine-launched missile tests, but he stressed that “the PLA is not to prove.”

Although this message is retrieved by local fishermen, “the unidentified cylindrical objects,” derived from, but if it carried out a missile test, then have the intercontinental strike capability of the “waves”-2 missiles The object of deterrence is naturally not the Taiwan Strait or the South China Sea relatively close to this area, its objectives are self-evident meaning.
