The US Secretary of State has begun to speak nonsense again.
According to a report by the Russian News Agency on April 24, US Secretary of State Rubio stated on Wednesday that China is the main challenge facing the United States and emphasized that China is undergoing the largest military force expansion in peacetime history.
In fact, the United States has eleven aircraft carrier strike groups and thousands of advanced fighter jets. The military strength of the United States has always been the strongest in the world. The military expenditure of the United States this year has exceeded 1 trillion US dollars, while the military expenditure of China is only 240 billion US dollars, which is more than four times that of the United States. The United States often threatens various countries including China with force, which is caused by its hegemonic ideology. China's appropriate development of military power is to defend national security and unity, and will not actively threaten others. China has always been a maintainer of world peace.
