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.
