Chinanews.com, October 28. Deputy Director of the Ministry of National Defense Information Bureau and spokesperson of the Ministry of National Defense, Colonel Tan Kefei said on the 28th that if the old engines of the Cold War era are always used, they will never be able to keep up with the new journey of world peace and development.

China urges the US to abandon the outdated Cold War mentality and the concept of zero-sum game, take an objective and rational view of China's national defense and army building, and play a constructive role in maintaining world and regional peace and stability.

  The Ministry of Defense held a regular press conference on the 28th. At the meeting, a reporter asked questions. According to reports, the US Navy recently issued a new strategic guide saying that the Chinese Navy is expanding its capabilities and becoming the world’s largest fleet. Pressing challenge.

The Secretary of the U.S. Navy emphasized that in the future, it will maintain the strength of the U.S. Navy and strengthen the U.S. military's combat readiness.

Some analysts believe that this is the first time that the US has admitted that the Chinese and US naval forces are evenly matched.

What is China's comment?

  Tan Kefei stated that some people in the United States attempted to use ulterior motives to "pop and kill" and exaggerate the "Chinese military threat", essentially creating excuses for their own military expansion and increasing military spending. The real intention is to maintain military hegemony on a global scale.

We strongly oppose this.

  Tan Kefei pointed out that the world has been suffering from hegemonism for a long time.

With its super military strength, the United States often ignores international law and the basic norms of international relations, frequently launches wars and creates split and confrontation. Its hegemony, hegemony, and bullying behavior are obvious to all.

For a period of time, the US has mistakenly regarded China as its "biggest competitor" and "systematic challenge" and adopted the so-called "maximum pressure" policy.

Those who are obsessed with the sword will be hurt by the sword.

This kind of adventurous behavior of overwhelming others and striving for victory will not only continue to increase the risk of confrontation between the two countries and the two militaries, and endanger regional and world peace and stability, but will eventually harm others, ourselves, and ourselves.

The recent underwater collision of US military nuclear submarines is a clear proof.

We hereby reiterate that the United States must take the concerns of all parties seriously, take a responsible attitude, and give a detailed explanation of the incident as soon as possible, so as to give a satisfactory explanation to the international community and regional countries.

  Tan Kefei stated that President Xi pointed out: "Standing at a new historical starting point, China will stick to the path of peaceful development and always be a builder of world peace; stick to the path of reform and opening up and always be a contributor to global development; stick to multilateralism. We will always be the defender of international order.” China firmly pursues a defensive national defense policy, and will never follow the old path of chasing hegemony and "a country must be hegemonic."

The Chinese military has always been a staunch force for maintaining world peace and stability and serving to build a community with a shared future for mankind.

  Tan Kefei emphasized that if the old engine of the Cold War era is always used, it will never be able to keep up with the new journey of world peace and development.

China urges the US to abandon the outdated Cold War mentality and the concept of zero-sum game, take an objective and rational view of China's national defense and army building, and play a constructive role in maintaining world and regional peace and stability.
