Summitul NATO de la Ankara: Nu ne permitem luxul timpului. Avem nevoie de capabilități acum pentru a ne asigura că rămânem pregătiți. Rusia investește aproape jumătate din bugetul său național în mașina sa de război. Vă puteți imagina că aproape 50% din ceea ce cheltuiește Rusia este investit în mașina de război. Industria sa de apărare funcționează non-stop. Și nu numai industria de apărare - și restul bazei industriale din Rusia sprijină efortul de război. China continuă să-și modernizeze forțele armate și să-și extindă capacitățile nucleare fără transparență. Coreea de Nord continuă să-și extindă programul nuclear și să aprovizioneze Rusia. Deși acțiunile recente au degradat semnificativ programele nucleare și de rachete balistice ale Iranului, trebuie să rămânem vigilenți. Aceste țări lucrează din ce în ce mai mult împreună. Și acest lucru ar trebui să ne preocupe pe toți, pentru că vă asigur că nu au în vedere interesele noastre.

AFP: Solomon Islands lodges strong protest with China over missile test

The U.S. State Department has published a statement responding to yesterday's test launch of a nuclear-capable submarine-launched intercontinental ballistic missile towards the Southern Pacific Ocean by China, with the statement reading: "The United States monitored China's test launch from a submarine of an unarmed intercontinental-range ballistic missile, which landed in the Southern Pacific Ocean. At a time when the United States is working harder than ever to prevent nuclear proliferation, China is doing the opposite. Beijing's rapid and opaque nuclear weapons buildup is of great concern to the region and the world. We continue to urge China to engage in meaningful arms control discussions and commit to a regularized notification arrangement for all intercontinental-range ballistic missile and space launches consistent with commitments made by all other P5 members. The United States remains steadfast in our defense commitments to our allies and partners

Hours after Australia signed a defence pact with Fiji, China test-launched a long-range ballistic missile from a nuclear-powered submarine in the South Pacific. China called it routine training with a dummy warhead. New Zealand protested the short notice, while Australia called the test "destabilizing" for the region. Source: BBC
