BEIJING, Aug. 25 (UPI) -- The U.S. Pentagon's latest annual report on China's military overlooked its peaceful defense policy, the official media said Thursday.
Pentagon official Michael Schiffer, in a media briefing on the Pentagon report, noted China's expanding military capabilities have allowed it contribute to activities such as international peacekeeping and fighting piracy, but its military capabilities are potentially destabilizing to regional military balances and increase the risk of misunderstanding and miscalculation.
