China's defense minister warned of the consequences that worsening relations between Beijing and Washington could lead to

Chinese Defense Minister Li Shangfu believes that the worsening relations between Beijing and Washington could have disastrous consequences for the whole world. With such a statement, the head of the Chinese defense department made the day before at the annual Asian security summit "Shangri-La Dialogue" in Singapore, the international agency reports. News Reuters.

It is possible that a serious conflict or confrontation between China and the United States could develop into an unbearable catastrophe for the whole world.

the Chinese minister said.



At the same time, Li noted, despite the fact that the positions of the two states differ greatly on many issues, the leadership of his country still does not intend to get involved in a confrontation with the United States, choosing the path of dialogue with official Washington.

Still, both sides are aimed at finding consensus and common interests aimed at developing bilateral ties and strengthening mutual trust and cooperation.

- said the head of the Chinese military department.

Recall that the other day, information was leaked to the media about the incident that occurred in the Taiwan Strait between Chinese and American ships. According to the US Navy, the PRC warship allegedly made unsafe maneuvers near the USS Chung-Hoon destroyer, approaching it at a distance of less than 150 m. warships and aircraft enter the areas adjacent to the territory of China in order to carry out provocations, and not for "innocent passage." According to the Chinese military, Beijing supports the idea of ​​peaceful passage of foreign ships, however, as the official clarified, this should not be carried out as an excuse to gain superiority in shipping.

Relations between the two countries have deteriorated greatly in recent years amid the tense situation around Taiwan and territorial disputes in the South China Sea. At the same time, the restrictions imposed by President Joe Biden on the export of semiconductors and equipment for their production to China also contributed to the deterioration of relations.

      A sour kneading is underway.

      Friends of "Russian Spring" from one of the hottest sectors of the front now got in touch and told the details of the latest battles at the junction of the Zaporozhye and South Donetsk fronts, which began yesterday and continued today.

      They assure us that Neskuchnoye has not been taken, ours are there, and they get in touch every two hours.

      During the offensive in the Neskuchny area, the enemy, after losing equipment in the minefields, was able to enter our forward positions, but ran into a fierce rebuff from tanks and infantry, covered by artillery and aviation fire.

      Having got stuck, the Ukrainian Nazis brought up the reserves of the 28th Ombre and 31st Ombre of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

      Army aviation came to the rescue: "Alligators" and "Night Hunters" attacked armored groups of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with guided missiles.

      Russian artillery began to work from the entire range of weapons against the advancing forces: D-30, D-20, self-propelled guns and MLRS.

      After artillery preparation, units of the 127th division of the RF Armed Forces launched a counterattack. Russian fighters put Ukrainian fighters to flight.

      Preliminary losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine: 20 tanks, 41 armored personnel carriers, 16 armored vehicles, 4 artillery installations and more than 300 people wounded and killed personnel.

      Right now, the enemy has pulled up new armored groups and is trying to bring them into battle, fire damage is inflicted on the places of accumulation, the fighting continues.

      The disastrous debut of French tanks: The enemy began to throw AMX-10RC wheeled tanks in "packs" during the offensive near Ugledar
      The experts unequivocally determined that the footage depicted wheeled armored vehicles from France. They are defined by:
      hatches of the mech and turret;
      bevels in the front;
      muzzle brake on the 105 mm gun.

      Why would the United States want to break its crystal castle for the sake of Taiwan. Here they live, everything is there, gay parades, basketball and baseball, F150 on the roads, the president is a walking corpse, and then bam and dark, completely dark, always dark.

          so the Americans take the Chinese on a bluff

          I do not believe in this "confrontation". The Americans would have provoked a conflict long ago if they wanted to. Just put down your weapons and away you go. They bargain, perhaps, for something, perhaps to justify their actions, a performance, military purchases, for example. Taiwan is a supplier of microelectronics, a lot of money has been invested there, why do they need an armed conflict there? It is quite possible to quarrel and prevent uniting.
          Again, in the United States itself, the Chinese are dark.

        So China doesn't need it either. 6 thousand years of history. They will wait another 20 ... 50 ... 100 years and Taiwan itself will inevitably fall into their hands.

      Freely determined sailor. As soon as the US and China have equal imports and exports, the PRC will shoot the US without hesitation. You know that the US buys 3 times more than it sells. hi

        It would be hard to stop tempting yourself with imports when the whole world is addicted to dollar injections. It's so cool when you just print papers with portraits of American figures, and insane speculators inspire consumers that this is an "evergreen means of payment" ...

        China, the United States will be shot without hesitation.

        Fuck knows what you meant: the PRC will shoot the USA or the USA will shoot the PRC ...
        Judging by the "shoot" you give the victory to the United States (they are the United States of America). With what would the United States begin to be made to fire against the PRC? By their nature, they have ceased to be a serious adversary in the war with nuclear powers (as shown by the events with the DPRK). It is not necessary to attribute to this country high combat power. To date, the US Army is only the second (after the Ukrainian - lol).
        The PRC itself does not need a war either. It lays claim to economic hegemony and prefers to sit on the banks of the river (China's population allows you to raise an army of 600 people). Is anyone else capable of this?
        All this bickering between the US and China has been known since the middle of the last century. And the USA in China has the same attitude as the GB ...

        Will the Americans have the courage to go so far with us?

        Dear man (sorry for not calling you by name and gender)!
        You want to ask if the United States has the “courage” to fight with proxy, supplying the participating countries with its “invincible” weapons and supporting the hype with all the available means of propaganda? Have you had the courage to blow up a gas pipeline belonging to a nuclear quasi-power... Have you had the audacity to unleash and supervise a military conflict between Ukraine and Russia?
        Will the Russian President have the courage to cause irreparable economic damage to the United States (not even a nuclear strike)? Events show that the leadership of Russia is not free in its choice and does not care at all about the form in which the country will remain after being led by a party of crooks and thieves.
        * * *
        Even in the conflict with Ukraine, Russia does not draw conclusions, believing that everything will resolve itself - you just need to wait ...

    The Chinese will create PMCs of millions for 4-8 fighters, they will ask Kim to help with some means and forces, and they will take
    ... For example, not Taiwan, but South Korea, reuniting it with North Korea (Kim will be entrusted with holding a referendum, he can handle it). And Taiwan will be placed in a blockade until it gets wiser.

    I'm afraid to be a prophet again, after 41 years.
    Under current conditions, the clash between China and the United States over Taiwan will end in Falklands #2. As the conflict grows, the war of the US coalition of Great Britain, Canada, Australia, the Philippines and Japan, and at the final stage of the accession of India and Vietnam to them, will end with the reunification of Korea, the occupation and the new division of China.
    The Chinese Armed Forces are a tracing paper of the Soviet era. A powerful, but poorly trained and not fired army, incapable of a lightning throw. A fleet, numerous, but locked in coastal seas. Frankly weak offensively aviation. And defenseless after the deployment of missile defense components of the Strategic Missile Forces.
    The territory of residence of 80% of the population of China is compact, dependent on irrigation facilities and not provided in terms of food and energy security. So in the current scenario, China can at most cause some damage to the US and maybe catastrophic damage to Japan.
    The only thing that can save China is an alliance with Russia. But the political circles of both countries do not feel the threat well, and our pro-Western Foreign Ministries and the economic bloc are generally dragging Russia into the servitude of the United States.
