Hegseth: ‘Whoever wants peace must prepare for the war’
The head of the Pentagon Pete Hegseth “deliberately incites the ideological clash and amplifies the so -called rhetoric of the Chinese threat”. It is the accusation of the spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry Lin Jian after Hegseth said in an interview with Fox News that the US does not want war, but “we are ready: whoever wants peace must prepare for war”. The US “must stop projecting the hegemonic mentality and see bilateral relationships with the obsolete lens of the Cold War. Whether it is tariff or commercial war, cold or hot, it must not be fought and cannot be won”, added Lin.
