Us-China Conflict: Tension often increases in America (US) and China (China), the countries with the two most powerful armies in the world. China stopped talks with America a week ago when US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin invited his Chinese counterpart for a meeting. Chinese Defense Secretary Li Shangfu declined the invitation to meet the US Defense Secretary. And now, Shangfu has given a big statement on the US-China conflict.
Chinese Defense Secretary Li Shangfu warned that a conflict between the two countries would be disastrous for the world. Shangfu said that’s why we want to negotiate a confrontation with America.
At the ‘Sangri La’ dialogue, Asia’s top security summit, Shangfu said- “The world is so big that China and America can develop together.” His statement indicates that China has refused to accept America as the world’s only superpower, as America has been seeing itself in this form.
Shangfu said about a possible alliance like NATO – We do not accept that such a military alliance should exist in our area of influence. Apart from this, Shangfu also mentioned Taiwan. He warned, “If anyone tries to separate Taiwan from China, the Chinese army will not stop even for a second.”

America’s Bullying Will Reduce, Dragon’s Height Will Increase
Defence experts say that due to China’s strength, the world is no longer bipolar but is becoming a ‘multi-power centre’. Russia is not only a global power in front of America, but China is now challenging America by taking Russia’s place. Russia has been hit by sanctions for waging war in Ukraine, and because of this, its influence is no longer what it used to be.
Under the leadership of Xi Jinping, China has prepared itself in such a way that it is now determined to match America in every respect. In some cases, China is still ahead of America. The latest statement of Shangfu of China also gives a feeling of this.
Who Is Li Shangfu, When Did He Become Defense Secretary?
China’s Defense Secretary Li Shangfu is like the Defense Minister in India. In China, the Defense Minister is called the Defense Secretary. And his dress is like that of a military general. Li Shangfu became the Defense Secretary of China in March. And the warning statement to America on June 4 is his first crucial international address.
