The report highlights that the PLA has adopted more aggressive actions in the Indo-Pacific – including increased unsafe operational behavior – that are dangerous, plain and simple.

First, the CMPR puts PLA modernization efforts into strategic perspective: the PRC wants to transform the international system to favor its own political governance system and interests by expanding its national power.

The newly released 2022 China Military Power Report shows the importance of meeting the Department’s pacing challenge. We’re laser-focused across the Department on making sure we have the operational concepts, capabilities, and resources we need. https://t.co/ddsh61MnWl

On Chinese propaganda...

Scripted propaganda can be identified from clusters of newspapers printing nearly identical articles on same day.

Propaganda in front page articles more than doubled from 2012 to 2020

Amid credible press reports that Speaker Pelosi will travel to Taiwan in August--a trip planned for April that was postponed by her positive COVID-19 test--it might be useful to review the 1995-96 episode that marked the greatest Strait crisis since the late 1950s. 1/15

[Rachael Burton @RBurton_]

“Secretary Austin reaffirmed the importance of peace and stability across the Strait, opposition to unilateral changes to the status quo, and called on the PRC to refrain from further destabilizing actions toward #Taiwan.” https://t.co/hu8hLA4njA

I met with PRC Minister Wei at the Shangri-La Dialogue. We discussed U.S.-PRC defense relations, as well as global and regional security issues.

@roderick_s_lee @WarOnTheRocks Great piece!

[Department of War 🇺🇸 @DeptofWar]

.@PentagonPresSec: On 4/20/22, @SecDef had a phone call with the PRC Minister of National Defense. The PRC Ministry of National Defense published a readout which erroneously claimed that "the United States adheres to the one-China principle." The Secretary did not say this.
