Bloomberg report - CIA director Leon Panetta, who has been nominated to succeed Defense Secretary Robert Gates, said China appears to be building the capability “to fight and win short-duration, high-intensity conflicts” along its borders.


“Its near-term focus appears to be on preparing for potential contingencies involving Taiwan, including possible U.S. military intervention,” Panetta said in a 79-page set of answers to questions from the Senate Armed Services Committee in advance of his confirmation hearing, scheduled for June 9.


China’s efforts to modernize its military “emphasize anti- access and area capabilities,” Panetta said in his written answers. China also is modernizing its nuclear forces and improving its space and counter-space operations as well as its computer network operations, Panetta said.


In addition, China is expanding its missions to include humanitarian assistance, non-combat evacuation operations, and counter-piracy support, according to Panetta.


The U.S. should continue to “monitor closely” the growth of China’s military capabilities while designing a strategy “to preserve peace, enhance stability, and reduce risk in the region,” Panetta said.


“The complexity of the security environment, both in the Asia-Pacific region and globally, calls for a continuous dialogue between the armed forces of the United States and China to expand practical cooperation where we can and to discuss candidly those areas where we differ,” Panetta said.


Addressing potential future conflicts around the world, Panetta said that the Pentagon “must be prepared” to confront potential adversaries armed with air defense systems, long-range ballistic missiles, and anti-ship cruise missiles.


“Given the importance of power projection for U.S. operations, naval and air assets will undoubtedly play a key role in these future military engagements,” Panetta said.

First - China's foreign affairs are just an extension of domestic policy. According to Financl Times columnist Philip Stephens, "Almost every conversation with a Chinese policymaker still starts with the domestic – with the overriding priority of sustaining economic growth and preserving the social and political order.


What counts is that China retains access to the oil and other natural resources needed to fuel its economy. Social stability is judged more critical than ever during the transition to a new generation of leaders in 2012."  The diplomacy could be described as "stabilities-keeping diplomacy".


Second - Current Chinese diplomacy is complicated and effective, China is the country that cares the most its own international reputation in the world.



Third - China's rise won't be a threat to any country. In China the Confucius cosmopolitanism is embraced by the majority, especially the elite. China advocates an "Inclusive Rise Strategy"(Click and learn more),which means China is rising without imposing - develope by the world, for the world, and with the world.
