| Pentagon Worries About Chinese Buildup Near India |
| 2021-12-19 |
| [ForeignPolicy] China’s new airports and highways near the border have put officials on edge. Update, Dec. 17, 2021: This story has been updated to provide additional satellite imagery of the Chinese military buildup near the Indian border. Images are posted in a Twitter thread here. The U.S. Defense Department is newly concerned about China’s further military buildup near the demarcation line across its Himalayan border with India, a senior defense official told Foreign Policy, after Beijing deployed long-range strategic bombers to the area last month in another apparent warning to New Delhi.The senior defense official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive policy deliberations, said that the buildup fits the pattern of Chinese regional aggression seen elsewhere in the Indo-Pacific region, such as in the Philippines, where Chinese coasties vessels moved to block Philippine supply boats in November. But there’s optimism among experts and officials that India will be able to stand its ground against the People’s Liberation Army. New Delhi has put up more diplomatic and military resistance than China’s antagonists in other territorial incursions, such as in the South China Sea, experts said. |

| #1 Just saying The WUHAN Virus gets released into the areas, then the CCP stages forces in hard hit areas. While the USA and other NATO countries are fighting their BIO-WARFARE attack. |
