LIVE | U.S. Military Service Chiefs Raise China Alarm | ‘Need To Take Xi Jinping Very Seriously’

The US faces pressure to modernise and respond to China’s rapidly advancing military capabilities and ambitions, top Pentagon figures said, vowing to hasten the integration of manned and unstaffed systems to overcome a “readiness crisis” decades in the making.

Senior officials from America’s navy, marine corps, air force, space force and coastguard argued the US needed quickly to adapt and innovate amid the People’s Liberation Army’s growth, particularly given a relative shortfall in shipbuilding and other areas.
“They are certainly putting a lot of resources into the capabilities,” said General David Allvin, the US Air Force chief of staff, of the PLA, speaking on Monday at an event organised by the Council on Foreign Relations, a US think tank.
“Will they fight? I don’t want to find out. But they’ve got a leader who has an ambition,” he added, referring to Chinese President Xi Jinping. “That’s something we need to take very seriously.”
