senior NATO officer has warned of China's "shocking" military development and growing diplomatic clout, as the trans-Atlantic alliance toughens its stance on Beijing.
Air Chief MarshalSir Stuart Peach, who is stepping down on Friday after three years as chair of NATO's military committee, told the Financial Times that the alliance's 30 member states needed to do more to decide what China's military ambitions might mean for them.
The FT interview, published on Friday, comes as tensions simmer between China and the West, against the backdrop of a Washington-Beijing trade war, increased military aggression and a string of cyberespionage attacks.
ach said: "It is quite shocking how quickly China has built ships, how much China has modernised its air force, how much it has invested in cyber and other forms of information management, not least facial recognition.
"I think it's very important to keep an eye on that. What do you do if you're a leader in China with a modernized powerful large force? You deploy it, you move it around."

China preps for war on America while the deep state/DoD preps to wage genocide on Americans.
But I thought inclusiveness and diversity were our strengths.
We don’t have to worry.
China’s military is not diverse.
And not white.
Aren't you forgetting the Uighurs?
1930s Germany.
They saw THAT coming.
Hitler marched his troops into the Rhineland in 1936, in direct violation of the Versailles Treaty, and most of his generals thought France would attack.
France did nothing.
Hitler, emboldened, took Saarbrucken, then Austria, then the Sudentenland. France and UK did nothing. The wanted to AVOID war and got it anyways.
We had Trump, and then picked Biden (the BTB, at least).
History repeats.
Film at 11:00.
Almost as if they are both on the same side.
Yeah, that container ship says it all.
Trump knew of this danger, and he tried to do something about it. So of course Trump had to go.
I have a feeling we will hear that line a lot as China takes over the world, and the US is reduced to rubble.
Sounds like someone needs to be Brexited off to France.
“Igitur qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum.”
I think there are a number of stark comparisons to 1930s
Germany that could be made these days, particularly with
what is taking place in our nation.
Who thought our young adult and even k-12th grade kids would
be impacted for the better by communist agents?
We’ve been screaming bloody murder about it for decades.
Well, this is what we saw coming.
Maybe the DOD can enlist tie same Chinese to help fix our “White Rage” problem.
I for one would like to welcome our new Chinese overlords.
I’m Joe Biden and I paid for this message. Or should I say, I was paid for this message?
No worries! Austin, Bishop and Millie are busy standing our forces down in search of White Supremacists and understanding White Rage.
After they conquer the Great White Enemy they will set their sights on controlling the weather.
I doubt if they are allowed in the military.
It is amazing what you can accomplish when you don’t have to worry about worshiping at the altar of the Woke Pantheon.
