Oli Smith<\/a> – May 15, 2021<\/p>\n CHINA has issued its deadliest warning yet as Beijing warned that the US will be “defeated” if the two superpowers go to war amid a tense stand-off over the South China Sea and Taiwan.<\/p>\n China<\/a> has pledged to rapidly defeat the US in a military conflict <\/a>in one of the country’s most explicit warnings yet. China’s Global Times, which is seen as a Government news outlet, published an editorial revealing the threat in response to joint military drills carried out by the US. The US joined drills with Japan, Australia and France this week in an intended show of force against Beijing.<\/p>\n However, instead of backing down, China appears to have been rattled, prompting a fierce rebuke in Beijing’s state-run newspapers asserting confidence in Chinese military superiority.<\/p>\n RT America\u2019s Alex Mihailovich said: “The Global Times put out an editorial saying the US would be defeated if any conflict broke out in the South China Sea.<\/p>\n “Many see the drills as a show of force aimed at China as Japan works towards consolidating military alliances in an effort to deter its neighboring superpower<\/p>\n “However the drills appeared to irritate China rather than contain it.”<\/p>\n He continued: “According to the Global Times editorial, the US will be defeated if it engages in combat with China in its neighboring waters.”<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.express.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
