Beijing: Beijing on Thursday said the United States and Japan had “smeared and attacked” China during a Washington summit, where US President Joe Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida unveiled their countries’ biggest-ever upgrade in defense ties.
Biden and Kishida unveiled plans on Wednesday to restructure the US military command in Japan, the biggest such change since the 1960s.
The move is aimed at making US and Japanese forces more nimble in the event of threats, such as a Chinese invasion of Taiwan.
