US: Burns says China top security threat

WASHINGTON, 21 October 2021, (TON): China today is the main threat to the national security of the United States and other countries of the democratic world, Nicholas Burns, a candidate for the post of US ambassador to the PRC, said.

Burns said that during a hearing at the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee “China is the main threat to the security of our country and the entire democratic world.”

Burns also noted that China, unlike the United States, today does not have a large number of friends and does not have real allies, and Washington should use this in its approaches.

He added diplomat “today, China has few friends and virtually no real allies. We, in turn, are linked by numerous alliances with other countries, which is our great advantage. We must work intensively with these countries to develop a strategy for China.”
