Milley's call to Li will make China 'more aggressive: Gordon Chang
Fox News
Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Mark Milley's two phone calls to CCP Gen. Li Zuocheng likely will make China 'more aggressive', Gordon Chang says.
"[T]hat would have made the Chinese -- and I think it will make them – more aggressive, and more belligerent because they think that the U.S. will not be able to oppose them," Chang told host Mark Levin.
"I know some people actually say that General Li Zuocheng -- when he heard that, actually thought Milley was threatening to attack China – we just don't know how the Chinese reacted. But whatever was the case, I'm sure that this did not work to the benefit of the United States because it either made the Chinese more aggressive one way or the other."
Chang said Trump had built a reputation as the "least warlike president in decades" – with his detente toward otherwise hostile regimes like that of Kim Jong Un in North Korea.
