China Rages Over Philippines Deployment: Did Biden Just Sleepwalk Us Into Another Cuban Missile Crisis?
Story by George C. Upper III • 19h •


China doesn't seem to approve of the deployment of a new U.S. weapons system in the northern Philippines.

"The United States and Philippine practices put the entire region under the fire of the United States (and) brought huge risks of war into the region," Defence Ministry spokesperson Wu Qian told the media, according to Reuters.
 
"Intermediate-range missiles are strategic and offensive weapons with a strong Cold War colour," he added.

The specific intermediate-range missile system behind all the uproar is the Typhon, which the U.S. deployed to the Philippines last month as part of a joint exercise with the Philippine military.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The media rages when he caves to China and when he doesn't. :shrug:
