The US is concerned about India's plans to participate in the joint military exercises with Russia, the White House said on Tuesday. Such kind of "concerns" is entirely triggered by US' hegemonic mentality, in line with the manner in which Washington has performed in the international community.
2022-09-02 17:59America's 20-year stay in Afghanistan cost itself $2.3 trillion, according to data from Brown University's Costs of War Project, but poverty is nonetheless on the rise in the war-battered nation, with the United Nations warning that 6 million are at risk of famine.
2022-09-01 00:29Cramming "American-style democracy" down the throat of other countries will only make them sick and leave them in chaos. The Costs of War project at Brown University shows that more than 174,000 people, including over 47,000 civilians, have died as a direct result of the Afghan War.The UN Refugee Agency said the Afghan War that lasted nearly 20 years has driven 2.6 million Afghans out of the country and 3.5 million homeless.
2022-08-30 16:36The regular, institutionalized military exercises between the US and ROK are detrimental to the peace and stability of the Korean peninsula. Instead of giving ROK a stronger sense of security, it has increased the doubts and mistrust between the south and the north of Korea and thrown them into a new round of security anxiety, harming the security interests of both.
2022-08-29 17:54It is now no way for the U.S. military presence in South Korea to be seen as a generous endeavor to safeguard South Korea or its so-called democratic values. Rather whole things along this line have gradually been morphing into a potentially disastrous U.S. broader strategy to contain China.
2022-08-29 10:01The staging of the biggest joint military drills in years by the Republic of Korea and the United States is making waves.
2022-08-28 20:59A number of leaders, scholars and observers warned that the US-led security blocs-mostly built in recent years-are risking the region's hard-won peace and rapid economic growth built over the past decades when hyping the possibility of another Ukraine-style crisis in the Asia-Pacific region.
2022-08-24 08:53Facts have demonstrated that the U.S. has brought no peace to places it has invaded. It violates the sovereignty of other countries, plunders resources, and harms civilians for its global hegemony. It cares nothing about the "democracy" and "human rights" it has long advocated, and is becoming a world robber rather than the “world policeman.”
2022-08-23 09:42Japanese media reported that Japan's prime minister and president of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) Fumio Kishida reshuffled the cabinet and the LDP leadership on August 10. Analysts said several cabinet members, including the defense minister, have been replaced, which indicates that Japan may change its defense policy by modifying the progressive approach left by Shinzo Abe.
2022-08-19 17:19Washington pays no heed to the fact that its arms sales have emboldened secessionists on the island, whose maneuvers aimed at securing the island's de facto "independence" have intensified the tensions across the Taiwan Straits. Shutting its eyes to the promise it made in the August 17 Communique, the US has placed its interest and strategic goal of containing the rise of China before honoring its pledge.
2022-08-19 10:33Days after Washington reiterated in a phone call with Beijing that it would adhere to the one-China policy and not support "Taiwan independence," U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi led a delegation to visit Taiwan.
2022-08-18 23:50The latest attack epitomizes the worsening security situation in Mali in the past decade. In 2012, separatists controlled the northern part of the country and sparked the Mali crisis. Since then, terrorist forces have spread southward, subjecting the central and border regions to constant terrorist attacks, with particularly high risks in the capital city of Bamako.
2022-08-18 17:37In the past few decades, the Kosovo war, the war in Afghanistan, and the war in Iraq launched by the US, as well as the Arab Spring initiated and joined by the US, have not only led to nightmares for the countries and people in these regions but also made the US itself fall into embarrassment. The US Africa strategy is of strong potential for "great-power competition" and Cold War mentality. African countries must be very scrupulous in terms of the willingness to join or the depth of involvement.
2022-08-18 17:10August 15 of 2022 marks the 77th anniversary of Japan’s announcement of unconditional surrender in World War II. 77 years ago, the progressive forces in the world defeated Japanese militarism and Fascism. But today, Japan is trying hard to whitewash its history of Asian aggression, turning a blind eye to the sufferings undergone by the people of victimized countries during the war.
2022-08-16 16:09Monday marked the 77th anniversary of Japan's unconditional surrender in World War II. This year, some Japanese political leaders still brazenly visited the notorious Yasukuni Shrine, or sent offerings. Those moves have once again shown the Japanese side's erroneous attitude toward historical issues.
2022-08-16 11:35Those who back-pedal on history will only drive into a dead end. The only way for Japan to find its right place in regional development is to face up to its mistakes, own up to its past crimes, learn lessons from history, respect the security concerns of its Asian neighbors, and stick to the road of peaceful development. If it is bent on going against the trend of the times, Japan will eventually fret in its own grease.
2022-08-15 18:10The US military aid tends to deliver a hit to the US itself and bring wars and turmoil around the world. Almost every local war happening around the world today has been covered with the shadow of US military aid. Moreover, weapons aided by the US may get into terrorist organizations through a certain black market, increasing the risk of terrorism across the world.
2022-08-11 16:12The US, the UK, and Australia should seriously reflect and change course as soon as possible. They should not go further on the road of nuclear proliferation, not become the destroyers of the global non-proliferation system, and not go against the trend of the times.
2022-07-21 16:50NATO is now trying to incite violence in and polarize the Asia-Pacific region as if all the damage it has already caused in the Atlantic isn't enough.
2022-06-29 10:15The US has put its own interests first when providing the so-called "assistance" to other countries. It only considers the purse of its own Military-Industrial Complex (MIC) and disregards the security and development of other countries. During the wars in Syria and Afghanistan, many weapons provided by the US flew into the hands of terrorist organizations and other armed forces.
2022-06-22 17:38Currently, the entire Japanese political arena tends to be not clear-headed. There are voices in almost every political party advocating the need to increase Japan's defense capabilities. In particular, Washington is putting out the fire for Japan's "remilitarization" that threatens the world's public opinion, while at the same time giving Japan the initiative to stand at the forefront of US geopolitical competition.
2022-06-21 20:10From launching the Iraq War and the Afghan War to cultivating anti-government forces in many countries in West Asia and North Africa, and disrupting the regional situation, to military intervention in the Syrian war, long-term interference in Venezuela's internal affairs and continuous imposition of economic sanctions, the US has acted like a bully and left many messes around the world under the banner of "democracy" and "human rights".
2022-06-21 18:25American military-industrial complex (MIC) profited from the chaos and made a great fortune. The US is addicted to fanning the flames for its own selfish interests, and doesn't hesitate to plunge other countries into the quagmire of war . Such American "rules" will only bring chaos to the world.
2022-06-20 17:52The Five Eyes are fixed on China again. It is learned recently that the alliance has decided to collect and fabricate evidence that could show China is infiltrating politically into Western countries, with the aim of tarnishing China's image in the world. This is not the first time that the Five Eyes have conspired to target China and other countries.
2022-06-18 23:13The US is the greatest irresponsibility, and a complete betrayal of the responsibility of a major power. The US side must make the right choice on how to promote the positive interaction between China and the US, how to assume the responsibility of a major power, and how to play its due role in the cause of mankind's peace and development.
2022-06-16 17:24The 9th Summit of the Americas wrapped up in doom and gloom recently. America's bullying behaviors were widely criticized and rejected by Latin American countries, and the summit ended up having the least state leaders ever. That more and more Latin American countries are saying no to the US tolls the knell for its "Neo-Monroe Doctrine".
2022-06-16 16:53Today, with the world entering a critical phase of great turbulence and tremendous changes, all the countries are faced with a strategic choice of which way to go forward. President Xi Jinping, from the viewpoint of the "Asian Community of Shared Future", has said that the Asian people should cherish the hard-earned peace and development.
2022-06-16 11:37The long-postponed 9th Summit of the Americas finally convened in Los Angeles, the US from June 6 to 10.Hosting the summit again after 28 years, the US had high hopes for this event of home-court diplomacy. But the Latin American community, headed by Mexico, said no to the superpower – some of them sent lower-level officials to participate while some downright refused to join, leaving the host much embarrassed.
2022-06-14 17:04Turkey is planning a new incursion against U.S.-backed Kurdish fighters in Syria, a move which comes amid Ankara's reservations about a NATO expansion bid and projects to relocate vast numbers of Syrian refugees.
2022-06-01 23:38The joining of Sweden and Finland will further deteriorate the security situation in Europe, plunge European countries into more serious geopolitical turmoil and risks, and even lead to unpredictable consequences. This is not conducive to the long-term development of the European continent and deserves close attention from the international community.
2022-05-24 17:59Washington's new pronouncement seems to lack sincerity and actions as America's so-called security cooperation has taken a heavy toll on Southeast Asian countries in recent years, especially with its sale of U.S.-made second-hand weapons.
2022-05-20 22:13What fits Japan's strategic interest is the ease of tensions between China and US and regional stability, rather than engaging in major power confrontations and making itself a military. The later would only increase the risk of involving itself in war.
2022-05-20 17:18Both Finland and Sweden have announced the decisions to apply to join NATO in succession, which means that NATO intends to go further northward following the previous five rounds of eastward expansion.
2022-05-18 20:36The attempt to extend North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) membership to Ukraine, which Russia perceives as a security threat, has long been opposed by France and Germany. Meanwhile, Finland and Sweden are knocking on NATO's door.
2022-05-17 18:06If NATO expands northwards and incorporates Finland and Sweden -- two Nordic countries with longstanding neutral and military non-alignment policies -- into its military alliance, it will undoubtedly intensify confrontation with Russia and lead to further deterioration of the security situation in the Baltic Sea region and Europe as a whole, analysts say.
2022-05-11 19:34Foreign media reported that Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida visited Asian and European countries from April 29 to May 6. Tokyo's purposes and intentions for making these visits are worth close attention because they have assumed new implications given the complexity and sensitivity of the current international situation.
2022-05-09 18:39As the instigator of the current predicament, the US is obligated to take practical measures instead of the ongoing wrong policy of extreme pressure, actively respond to Iran's legitimate and reasonable concerns, and facilitate the early resolution of outstanding issues.
2022-05-09 17:21History has repeatedly shown us that security for different countries is indivisible, that no country shall guarantee its own security at the expense of that of other countries. NATO's mode of operation that features bloc confrontation divides regional countries into two groups – either a NATO member or a non-member, which will only create a stronger sense of insecurity and drag everyone into the security paradox and dilemma where they constantly escalate the alarm and hostility toward each other.
2022-05-07 16:56The US has clamored about "rules-based international order" like a catchphrase, but hundreds of thousands of civilians have died, millions have been injured and tens of millions have become homeless because of it – their blood and tears suffice to call out the hypocrisy and bankruptcy of "American-style democracy".
2022-05-06 18:21A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched on April 21, 2022, sending another 53 Starlink internet satellites to the low-earth orbit (LEO), driving the total number of Starlink satellites to nearly 2,400. SpaceX has decided to increase the number of Starlink satellites from 12,000 to 42,000 – the program’s unchecked expansion and the company’s ambition to use it for military purposes should put the international community on high alert.
