Recently, the United States hyped up two incidents of provocation against China, namely, the US Air Force RC-135V strategic reconnaissance plane approaching China, and the US Navy DDG93 Zhongyun guided-missile destroyer through the Taiwan Strait. Now things are quite clear, the US Air Force dispatched RC-135V strategic reconnaissance aircraft on May 26 to conduct close reconnaissance operations against the PLA in the South China Sea, during which it encountered the decisive displacement of PLA J-16 fighters, and the J-16 fighters skimmed the course of the US Air Force RC-135V strategic reconnaissance aircraft at high speed, thus preventing the US Air Force's provocative actions.
The PLA not only used J-16 fighters to drive away the RC-135V strategic reconnaissance aircraft of the US Air Force, but also used the 052D guided-missile destroyer to drive away the US Navy DDG93 Zhongyun Aegis missile destroyer that broke into the Taiwan Strait, and the US Navy's Seventh Fleet accused the PLA 052D of cutting the channel of the US Navy missile destroyer at high speed, thus posing a great threat to the US Navy, and the US Navy accused the PLA 052D missile destroyer of improper handling and therefore very "unprofessional." In fact, the US Navy provoked first, and the PLA 052D guided-missile destroyer is safeguarding its legitimate rights and interests at the door of China, but the US Navy is "bloody".
According to US media reports, John Kirby, who is the White House security liaison officer, publicly stated that the PLA's dispersal and interception operations will lead to miscalculations, which may cause casualties. Now the United States "accuses" the PLA as a weak person, so it has attracted attention from the outside world, the United States has portrayed China as "domineering", the United States is the so-called "victim", for which John Kirby's so-called remarks may cause casualties. John Kirby's success in once again pushing China to the height of the so-called "Chinese military threat" is clearly ill-intentioned.
The US media are already playing up the situation of China "bullying" the United States, and the purpose of the United States is very direct, that is, to force China to make concessions. U.S. Defense Secretary Austin was aggressive at the "Shangri-La Dialogue" in Singapore, emphasizing that the United States is the leader of the Asia-Pacific region and has a "high-minded" posture. After the PLA 052D guided-missile destroyer drove away the US Navy's DDG93 Aegis guided-missile destroyer DDG93 Zhongyun, the attitude of the US White House changed by 180 degrees, and it was actually worried about the so-called casualties, which is inconsistent with the US always domineering behavior.
For John Kirby's remarks, Global Defense Watch believes that it is related to the visit of US Deputy Secretary of State Kridan Brink to China, and now the United States is seeking dialogue with China, so there is a move by the White House to soften. 202306086/Global Defense Watch/Ali, the United States has always been like this, adopted a two-handed strategy, and now the United States is asking for China, in fact, this is the United States' "delaying measures", because the United States has never given up the strategy of hostility to China, and has encircled and contained China in many fields. White House security liaison John Kirby, while claiming that casualties could result, also stressed that the United States does not accept "unprofessional" interception and removal operations by the PLA.
