China Warns Trump With Nuclear Fly-By
Source: The Daily Beast
Chinese officials warned Monday that relations with the U.S. may fall apart if President-elect Donald Trump does not respect Chinas core interests going forward. The comments were made in response to Trumps now-infamous phone call with Taiwans president. I want to stress that the Taiwan issue concerns Chinas sovereignty and territorial integrity, and involves Chinas core interests, foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said during a news briefing. Upholding the One China principle is the political basis for developing China-U.S. ties. If this basis is interfered with or damaged, then the healthy development of China-U.S. relations and bilateral cooperation in important areas is out of the question. The warning comes hours after reports emerged indicating China flew a nuclear-capable bomber over a disputed part of the South China Sea, in a move U.S. officials say was meant to send a message to Trump. The Xian H-6 bomber, at times accompanied by fighter jets, flew along the demarcation line between China and disputed territories, including Taiwan, Fox News reported, citing U.S. officials. Pentagon officials reportedly found out about the nuclear bombers flight Friday, though it was not immediately clear when the flight took place. Officials have warned the flight was the first of its kind in more than 18 months.

This is the big war coming....
I hope I am wrong - but with this sociopath scheduled soon to be commanding our military and having the nuclear arsenal at his finger...
