US still scaremongering

At a time when the world is celebrating the Allies' victory in World War II in different ways, the United States, as the world's sole superpower, is expected to be sending signals of peace as well. On the contrary, the Pentagon issued its annual report on the state of China's national defense on Saturday, which once again tried to sell the outdated "China threat" theory.

As before, the report casts doubt on China's normal defense building and its strategic plan and points fingers at China's military transparency and cyber and space programs, while turning a blind eye to China's contribution to world and regional peace and stability.

The US' accusations about China's strategic intentions and military transparency are groundless because China has issued eight editions of its defense white papers since 1998 to help the outside world understand its defense policy and why China is obliged to enhance its military capabilities.
