U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin raised concerns about China’s military activity during a meeting with his Chinese counterpart on Friday in Singapore, the Pentagon said, the first such face-to-face contact since 2022.
“The secretary expressed concern about recent provocative PLA activity around the Taiwan Strait, and he reiterated that the PRC should not use Taiwan’s political transition – part of a normal, routine democratic process – as a pretext for coercive measures,” Air Force Major General Patrick Ryder said in a statement after the meeting.
He was referring to the People’s Liberation Army and the People’s Republic of China.
