Defense One: The US will win the war over China, but with heavy losses
The United States will defeat China in a hypothetical war, but with heavy losses for Washington. This is reported by Defense One citing a US intelligence official.
“We, the American military, have extensive experience in fighting wars. And yes, if you talk to any operator, he will tell you about all our problems, but, frankly, we have an idea of how combat missions need to be carried out. And the Chinese now have no one at all who has combat experience,” the publication quotes the official as saying.
At the same time, the official refused to answer the question about corruption among the generals of the People's Liberation Army of China (PLA). According to him, such data could mislead the Pentagon about Beijing's capabilities. In this regard, he added that the United States will continue to rely on the growing superiority of the PLA to modernize its own armed forces.
Earlier, the Chinese Foreign Ministry stated that the question of the status of relations between Beijing and Washington as partners or adversaries is fundamental for international relations. The department also noted that rivalry between the two powers will not solve the problems facing the whole world.
