A Global Times op-ed said the U.S. is “far more sensitive than its allies.”
China’s People's Liberation Army Navy celebrated its 70th anniversary on Tuesday, with President Xi Jinping overseeing an elaborate naval parade that included Beijing’s newest guided missile destroyer.
“It is a pity that the U.S. did not send its warships to the celebration,” the op-ed continued, noting that an American missile destroyer attended PLAN’s 60th anniversary celebrations in 2009. “The U.S. is more sensitive compared to 10 years ago, and far more sensitive than its allies in the Asia-Pacific region,” the newspaper said.
China’s indigenous production capabilities have advanced in leaps and bounds. Its ability to entirely produce its own aircraft carriers, guided missile destroyers and fifth-generation stealth fighter jets is a potent reminder of the breakneck speed of Beijing’s recent military modernization. Tensions have since grown between China and the U.S., with Beijing constructing man-made island military bases to enforce its maritime claims. Meanwhile, U.S. warships and aircraft conduct “freedom of navigation” operations to maintain pressure on China and assert Washington’s belief that the areas constitute international waters.
