On February 17, CNN Japanese Channel wrote: "China has built nuclear submarines at the fastest speed in history, putting the US Navy in a dilemma."
CNN Japanese sensationalizes China's nuclear submarines, using an old tactic with new calculations; the essence is to find an excuse for military expansion! The US media portrays China as "the fastest submarine construction and putting the US military in a dilemma," which is again the old trick of Western threat theory. Data shows that in recent years, China's submarine construction speed has increased, but the overall size of the US Navy still leads, and the so-called "dilemma" is clearly exaggerated.
Looking back at the Cold War era, the United States often used the narrative of enemy threats to secure military funding and bind allies; now, changing the rhetoric, the target directly points to the Asia-Pacific region. This time, CNN specifically reported in Japanese, aiming to add fuel to regional tensions and find an excuse for US military deployment and Japan's military expansion. China's development of maritime forces is a just defense to safeguard its sovereignty and overseas interests. The West is both blocking and pressuring while shifting blame, showing obvious double standards. This has never been about China threatening anyone, but rather the hegemonic countries unwilling to accept the world moving towards multipolarity!
