(Washington Composite Electric) Mi Li, chairman of the joint meeting of the U.S. Chiefs of Staff, pointed out that China is the main threat of the United States in the next 50 to 100 years, but emphasizes that China is a competitor, not an enemy.

The current Army general MIDDOT; Mark Milley on Thursday (July 11) shows at the Senate Military Commission's nominated hearing that the United States hopes to get along with China and not war.

He believes that China has observed the United States' war in the Middle East in recent years and how to fight more effectively. In the next century, China may still be the primary threat of the United States.China is learning us, they carefully study our first Gulf War and the Second Gulf War.They observe our combat power and imitate in many ways, and they have adopted many theories and organizations.

Milly also mentioned that the main challenges of the existing defense strategy in the United States come from the threat of continuous evolution of China and Russia. They have replaced the war on terrorism as the primary task.He pointed out that China is investing in great investment to strengthen military strength to challenge the United States after World War II, especially in the Asia -Pacific region.

Mili said that China is rapidly improving military strength in space, sky, networks, sea, and land areas, so the United States must ensure that they will not lose their advantages in these fields.But he added: China is not an enemy.I think clearly that they are opponents.

The enemy is equivalent to our war.He added: We are not, we don't want to.We must get along with China peacefully, not fighting.

Yinghoff, chairman of the Senate Military Commission, who presided over Thursday, said that the current U.S. military is no longer far ahead of opponents in various fields of military. He asked what countermeasures would be taken after Milly took over as the chairman of the chief of staff.Milly replied that the U.S. military will strive to promote military modernization in the fields of trinules, space, artificial intelligence, and hypersonic speed, and achieve their goals with the core of against China and Russia.

Milly emphasized that to do this, the U.S. forces cannot do without the assistance of allies. Alliances and partnerships are the key to advancing US national security interests.

In recent years, China has vigorously filled the soil to build islands and implemented militaryization in the South China Sea, which has aroused concerns of many countries around the surrounding countries.In recent years, the U.S. military has significantly strengthened the freedom of navigation in the South China Sea.In this regard, Milly said that these actions are currently appropriate. If they are approved by the Senate as the chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff, he will evaluate the operation.

In addition, Mily answered questions from members of Afghanistan, Syria, and Iran.He said that the 18 -year -old Afghanistan war was long and difficult, but now it is not the time to withdraw the army. It is a strategic error to withdraw troops from Afghanistan.He also said that even if he defeated the Islamic State, the U.S. military will still deploy certain military forces in Iraq and Syria to ensure stability in the region.

On the other hand, Mili emphasized that he would not make a stupid decision because of coercion. It seemed to be guaranteed to assure President Trump's attack on Congress that he would not be controlled by the impulse of the president.

The nomination hearing atmosphere is harmonious.The US media believes that Milly will easily get the Senate approval.Once approved, Milly will be the chairman of the Chiefs Chief of Staff on October 1.
