The Pentagon report builds on a warning last year that China was expanding its nuclear force rapidly. China calls its findings false and assails U.S. actions.
China said the United States is the “biggest disruptor of regional peace and stability” in the world in a scathing response Wednesday to a Pentagon report on China's growing military buildup. The annual report that is required by Congress is one way the Pentagon measures the military capabilities of China, which the U.S. government sees as its key threat in the Asia-Pacific region and America’s primary long-term security challenge.
The earlier warning said Beijing was on track to nearly quadruple the number of warheads it has to 1,500 by 2035. China’s top diplomat Wang Yi will visit the United States on Thursday ahead of a possible meetup between Presidents Biden and Xi Jinping in November. U.S.-China relations have deteriorated since 2018, initially over a trade dispute and further amid the pandemic, China's actions in Xinjiang and over Taiwan. China also made sure to address Taiwan in its response.
