Pentagon chief criticizes Russia and calls for “not being friends” with China

US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper called on European countries to do more to counter Russian and Chinese attempts to "undermine international order." It is reported Associated Press.

Speaking at the Royal United Institute for Defense Research in London, the head of the Pentagon accused Russia and China of trying to undermine the world order and called on Western countries to make more efforts to counter these attempts.

It is becoming increasingly apparent that Russia and China want to undermine the international order by being able to influence the decisions of other countries in the fields of economics, diplomacy and security.

- he said.

According to Esper, Russia is taking “aggressive actions” in Europe, among which, of course, is the annexation of Crimea in the 2014 year and the creation of instability in the Donbass. Also, according to the US Secretary of Defense, nuclear warheads are on Russian ground-based missiles aimed at Europe. With regard to China, Esper said that Beijing is trying to expand its influence throughout the world at the expense of others and urged not to get closer to it. In addition, both countries are actively expanding opportunities in space and cyberspace, he said.

The more the state depends on Chinese investments, the more they are influenced by Beijing. I would like to warn my friends in the European Union against this

- said Esper, adding that China is not a country that is far away and its problems do not concern anyone.

Esper: ... make more efforts to counter the attempts of Russia and China to "undermine the international order."

Well, that Esper, already halfway through, are walking with you (from the USA) out of step?

Here Esper - the Pentagon bastard! And selfish American propagandist!

He has this real sophisticated enemy propaganda!
Even Goebbels would envy him in the next world!

With China, we generally need to enter into a military alliance! Then the whales are silent.

Not torn into the right flaps by the Americans.
So more precisely!
One trouble - they did not think about the consequences.

[sanya_sergant]

Not, dear. A little misunderstood what is happening.

US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper called on European countries to make more efforts to resist attempts by Russia and China to "undermine the international order"

And what is "World Order" in their understanding?
They don't hide it. This is the complete hegemony of the United States around the world - the top of the pyramid. One level below is a vassal europa. All the rest are slaves of the third world, called upon to provide the "golden billion".
I repeat once again. They do not hide this. This is the world order.

Where and to whom did he say this?
In London, Europeans.
And the Europeans are quite content to be under US rule, but in the "golden billion." Europeans of course agree with everything said. They do not need any "revolutions". Everything suits them.

And what does the US Secretary of Defense say to us?
Yes, no. We expressed our point of view. We are not satisfied with this "World Order", and we will shake it until it collapses.

** The words "Europeans, Europe" should be understood as Western Europe.

Russia and China bombed Vietnam, Iraq, Yugoslavia, Libya. They must be stopped !!!!!!!

So, from the point of view of the United States, Nabiulin does everything right.

[Mihail2019]

About: "If enemies scold us, then we do everything right!" - this is already a "litmus" paper of politics!

[dauria]

We will deal with the mustache ourselves, without them, essno!

The head of the Pentagon actually said the right idea. In the long term (albeit distant), we must take into account the army of China, and its industrial potential, and the population. "In politics, intentions are not important, potential is important." And the potential of the PRC ho-ho ... And if suddenly in the future the United States strongly weakened against China, we do not need it either. Not giving oneself to allies with either this or that — that's what we need now.

[210ox]

But this is already Our business with whom to be friends, and with whom not.

I translate it into an understandable language ... "And then we are so scared, already covered with goose bumps of Faberge ... We were afraid of combining German technologies with the Resources of Russia, but it looks like ..."

[Kontrik]

"undermine the international order".

Putin in Munich also said that the unipolar world order had come to an end .. And he kept his promise!
Russia has always been the unifying center of all anti-usurious world movements .. This is in our blood and genes! WAIT FOR ANOTHER SOUTH AMERICA WE WILL LIFT UP AND JOIN OUR COALITION.
The slogan of course, but why not ..
NATO to us, we Russia to you hehe

[Mihail2019]

Didn't you expect "strange cooperation" from Russia and China?
Technologies "suddenly" appeared in China, and about resources and ideas - Russia again "suddenly" appeared ..

Well, how can one be friends with those who develop space and capabilities in cyberspace, who produce everything from pins to satellites and even in the energy sector were the first? It is necessary to be friends with those who, in the event of which, simply carry out sanctions and smash to the brim with their destroyers and aircraft carriers.

About space, cyberspace, and production can be more detailed?

Striped snakes would have been silent in the tube, such a world mess had been arranged that you look like a pillar of dust everywhere - starting with the friendly and peace-loving atomic bombing, Korea, Vietnam, you can list the establishment of world disorder for a long time, but laziness

There is a demonization and dehumanization of Russia on all fronts ... recently, our country in the West has been accused of anything.
The process is understandable ... to convince the townsfolk that Russia is not a civilized country ... that the Russian savages and you can do anything with them ... you can cheat, rob and kill them and generally deal with them like the U.S. Indians and drive them into the reservation.
A dangerous trend and the illusion of permissiveness arose in the minds of Western politicians.

Right. But, besides, Russia, in history, more than once, miraculously, was reborn from an unthinkable "abyss", but for example, Great Britain, over whose territory the sun did not set 70 years ago, is already flying into this "abyss" and judging according to the current "intellectuals" in power (you are an old jacket, and you yourself are a fool ...). revival, if it is, it will be very difficult

Does Europe really have such a short memory? But she will no longer have a second chance. However, like the Yankees too.

Russian land missiles aimed at Europe have nuclear warheads

No, holiday crackers, damn it. The guy earned himself the prize "Mister Obvious". He is silent only about what is on the other side ... The more such silence and fear-mongering among the wards, the stronger our partnership with China will be.

[K-50]

American International Order?
But after all, not everyone needs it and does not suit everyone.

Russia and China want to undermine the international order, having the opportunity to influence the decisions of other countries in the field of economics, diplomacy and security

So far, Pin Dosia has influenced certain decisions of sovereign countries through sanctions, intimidation, and overt pressure by the armed forces.

Also, according to the US Secretary of Defense, nuclear warheads are on Russian ground-based missiles aimed at Europe.

It is quite possible that the gay-European missiles are aimed at Russia, but what kind of "stuffing", who knows.

Esper: China is not a country that is far away and its problems do not concern anyone.

Pin dos still further, but for some reason she is touched by something that does not apply to her at all.

[Sky strike fighter]

It’s becoming increasingly apparent that Russia and China want to undermine the international order,

That is, they want to undermine US hegemony.

The more the state depends on Chinese investments, the more they are influenced by Beijing.

And if states depend on American investment, aren't they influenced by Washington?
Classic. Do not dig a hole to another, you yourself will fall into it. The United States thought that with its investments the new China had grown up against the USSR, but it turned out that it was against itself.

[cniza]

“It is becoming increasingly apparent that Russia and China want to undermine the international order, being able to influence the decisions of other countries in the fields of economics, diplomacy and security

And this is an objective process, and you have to reconcile and no more.

[Terenin]

According to Esper, Russia is taking "aggressive actions" in Europe, including, of course, the annexation of Crimea in 2014 and the creation of instability in the Donbas.

Although you are the head of the Pentagon, nothing falls into the definition of "aggression" in the actions of Russia, in the indicated subjects.

Aggression (from lat. Aggressiō - attack) - motivated destructive behavior that contradicts the norms of coexistence of people, damaging the objects of attack, causing physical, moral damage to people or causing them psychological discomfort.

[senima56]

"Russia and China want to undermine the international order" ... Hmm, I remembered an old Soviet anecdote: "Super insolence is to get ... in a crowded tram and be indignant most of all!"

[evgen1221]

But the demonization of Russia is not growing from scratch, their analysts are well aware of the state and capabilities of our economy, and it is quite possible that they are preparing the next dragnet. It was interesting to read that they sing about China, about us, and so it is clear. There are suspicions that there are more restrained statements about the Chinese people in the bulk, because China is stronger than us and they do not want to anger because they themselves depend on it in many ways.

[Mihail2019]

And what? Even somehow their drangi nah osten ended with the same result. Really stupid, or what ?!
They, in the course, really need to correct DNA with radiation .. And then, just like Zadornov’s, they skid out of the blue!
It is said: "Don't go with a sword!"
They, like small children, again climb to the power outlet with their mother’s pin ..
Especially these, such as "gentlemen" from "Foggy Albion" - in fact: thieves and pirates, driven to the island by more successful tribes.
"Aristocrats" there - as in the dung of beads.

In fact-admitted that against the alliance of China and Russia, even NATO has a small intestine. Well, he made it clear to everyone that it was time to decide - who with whom ?!
Only on this issue, not everyone is already looking in the direction of the country of dollars.
For the dollar is dollar, and material resources are not dollars, and tend to end.
And the countries that have these resources and, most importantly, have the opportunity to dispose of them relatively independently, have quite obvious sovereignty. Well, this is where the "dancing" begins.

attempts by Russia and China to "undermine the international order."

And here it would be nice to present in the studio a link to a specific document, if you already refer to the name of Dzhugashvili (Stalin) I.V.
For if it is, then it will go on! Let people read!
For Joseph Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili (Stalin) was an extremely erudite and very intelligent person.
This was recognized even by such an ardent Russophobe as Winston Churchill. And paid tribute to Stalin, as the leader of the nation!

What does it mean to undermine the international order? This means putting the burnt mattresses in the stall!
