US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegsett has sharply criticized China, describing the increase in its actions as 'aggressive.' These statements were made against the backdrop of recent events in the region. China, in turn, has rejected these accusations, calling them slander and interference in its internal affairs. 'We will not tolerate any provocations,' stated a spokesperson for China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The situation remains tense, and the international community is calling on both sides to exercise restraint and engage in dialogue to prevent conflict escalation.
