US, China Defense Chiefs to Lay Out Rival Visions for Asia
Top American and Chinese defence officials will lay out rival visions for the Indo-Pacific region as they meet in Singapore this week amid a bruising global trade war, tensions over China’s push for technology leadership and the spectre of stalled U.S.-North Korea nuclear talks.
