Скачать или смотреть China’s Smiling Threat: Former Australian PM Reveals Beijing’s Indo-Pacific Strategy | APT

In a testimony before the U.S. Congress, former Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison warned that China continues to pursue hegemonic ambitions in the Indo-Pacific, masking its authoritarian objectives with "charm and flattery." Speaking to the Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the U.S. and the Chinese Communist Party, Morrison said Beijing has shifted tactics since Australia’s 2022 election but remains unchanged in its goal of weakening Western alliances. He accused the CCP of using inducement to undermine public support for security measures while still engaging in military intimidation against Australia. Morrison also cautioned that Australia’s perception of China as a threat is fading, citing public opinion polls that favor economic ties over national security concerns.
