The recent military moves of the United States have aroused great concern from the international community.

Shortly ago, the Blumberg News said that the US plans to organize special units for containing Russia and China. The units will reportedly be stationed on the islands in the Pacific Ocean on the east of the Philippines and Chinese Taipei and possess high-precision weapons capable of accurately destroying ground and naval targets, including supersonic missiles.

In October, the US secretary of the Army announced a plan envisaging the deployment of two special units in the Pacific region which can conduct intelligence, electronic, cyber and missile operations against China. He said that the units will be deployed within two years and this is because "China will emerge as a strategic threat to the US".

The US gives spurs to increasing its military muscle, complaining that it is left behind than the powers in the Asia-Pacific region in terms of the development of a series of strategic weapons.

In December last year, the US secretary of Defense said the US will concentrate its efforts on the competition with China and Russia, as it is far behind Russia in the development of supersonic missiles and it is now trying hard to catch up with others.

A high-ranking official of the US military said that the US army should develop at the same speed as its potential rivals, and made it known that the US is now engaged in the modernization of its ICBMs, submarines and strategic bombers.

This is just part of the military measures taken by the US.

According to foreign reports, the US has drastically increased investment in the US military intelligence agencies in its military budget for 2020, organizations in charge of the collection of information through spy satellites and the organization and command of spy activities abroad, including China and Russia.

Meanwhile, the US unilaterally withdrew from the treaty on the elimination of the intermediate-range and shorter-range missiles while hyping up "Russia's violation of the treaty" and "missile threat from China". Taking underhand advantage of it, the US conducted various kinds of missile tests.

In connection with this, a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry commented that the US’ real intention is to develop at will advanced missiles for containing China and Russia and, furthermore, obtain an unchallenged military edge, free from restrictions.

In the recent meeting of the collegium of the Defense of Russia, the minister said that the intermediate missile tests conducted by the US Defense Department proved the fact that the US developed missile systems which were prohibited in the treaty even during when it was valid. From a logical viewpoint, the missiles will be deployed in the EU and the East, he noted.

The world media and experts maintain that the US is trying to contain potential rivals in the Asia-Pacific region and realize its ambition to dominate the world.
