"To Confront China": US May Deploy New Permanent Naval Group in Pacific

11

The United States may deploy a new permanent naval force in the Pacific to counter China. According to Politico, citing knowledgeable sources, such a possibility is not ruled out.

According to the publication, the Pentagon is considering the option of deploying a permanent US Navy group in the Pacific region. The new plan envisages not only confronting China, although this will be the main purpose of the group, but also conducting military operations, which will allow the US Department of Defense to attract additional funds.



It is assumed that the new Pacific group will be created in the image and likeness of NATO's permanent naval forces in the Atlantic. However, at the moment it is not known whether only American ships will be included in it or NATO allies will be involved. Most likely the second option, since China, along with Russia, became the main enemy of the collective West, and NATO ships began to appear more and more often in the area.

The option of creating a permanent group was proposed by an analytical group specially created at the Pentagon, which, on behalf of Biden, developed ways to confront China, which is increasing its influence in the Asia-Pacific region. The recommendations were passed on to US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin.

While the Pentagon is only considering the option of creating a permanent naval group to confront China, the final decision has not been made.

      As the experience of North Korea has shown, all these monevings of aircraft carrier groups are ordinary American show-offs.

        As long as the United States and Co will waste millions of money on senseless saber rattling and ferrying ships back and forth, we need to seize the moment and purposefully and intelligently finish re-equipping the army with modern weapons, restore education to build up scientific potential. And they don't bother while playing boats with China

          Our time is to sit on the hill and watch the tigers in the valley.
          Our nuclear weapons and the Armed Forces, in their current state, allow us to do this. bully
          And I am also glad that they will not go against us together.

        The Americans take upon themselves the organization of the naval forces of China's neighboring countries, in a common grouping and supply Plans for the implementation of provocations will be drawn on the spot. Under the good pretext of containing China, the Americans need a military conflict in Asia, with the participation of China. And the economy of the neighbors will become a cherry on top. cake !!!

        This "additional funds" is the most important thing in this regard. By the way, where will the ships be based? Will any "brotherly country" accept? Or will they sail away from their native shores every time?

      For some reason I remembered the film "Peculiarities of the National Hunt"
      Semenov: You are under arrest!
      Kuzmich: Do you have a pistol?
      Semenov: Then detained ...
      I mean, are the ships, finances, and bases (Japan? Guam?) Already available and equipped?

      Now let's see the reaction of the Chinese to the appearance of Ronald Reagan in the South China Sea. Last time they made electronic launches, and controlled him until he left the coast of Taiwan. Otherwise, it will be like the sun-faced Eun.
