Commander of the US Space Forces, John Raymond, stated that the security of the final border is facing a "comprehensive threat" from China and needs to be addressed through cooperation with allies.

According to the Japanese media Nikkei Asia Review on September 9th, Raymond said in a phone interview that the space field facing the United States has become "more competitive," and "space supports all of our national strength, whether it is diplomacy, economy, information, or national security

He stated that China has built and is currently building "everything that can reverse interfere with GPS systems that provide precise navigation and timing, thereby interfering with communication satellites";

China possesses missiles that can be launched from the ground and destroy satellites; China is not only developing "killer satellites" with robotic arms that can disable other satellites, but also hopes to deploy anti satellite missiles and equipment to interfere with GPS services.

I believe that the abilities they are developing will be utilized by them in any potential conflicts, "Raymond said.

According to reports, Raymond believes that allies should cooperate to respond. He said that allies of the Allies should increase the speed and accuracy of intelligence sharing, expand military exercises, and prepare for national security emergencies. "When we are together, we are obviously stronger

The report also mentioned that China and Russia have expressed their willingness to work on space rule making and called for restrictions on the deployment of space weapons. But Washington rejected the proposal from Russia and China, and negotiations on the demilitarization of space have come to a halt. Obstacles to international cooperation still exist.

In addition, Raymond has repeatedly claimed that China and Russia have developed weapons capable of paralyzing or destroying American satellites, and that China's outer space capabilities pose an urgent threat to the United States.

Chinese Ministry of National Defense spokesperson Tan Kefei stated at the time that a prominent feature of such remarks is treating viewpoints as facts and speculations as conclusions. This cannot justify itself, and it is even more difficult to gain people's trust. Its real purpose is nothing more than to first establish a "hypothetical enemy" and then pretend to be a "victim" to create excuses for expanding space armaments and seeking absolute advantage.

In fact, it is the United States that defines outer space as a 'combat territory', establishes an independent space force, and frequently organizes outer space combat exercises. Currently, the weaponization and battlefield ization of outer space have become an urgent threat to the international community, and the United States cannot shirk its responsibility for this

It is worth mentioning that 2021 is a great year for China's aerospace industry, and China's aerospace industry has entered the "space station era". On September 1st, during the school season, three astronauts from the Chinese space station, Liu Boming, Nie Haisheng, and Tang Hongbo, brought a "space lecture" to the students.

In the field of lunar exploration, Long Lehao, an academician of the CAE Member and an expert in carrier rocket and aerospace technology, disclosed that China will achieve the goal of landing two astronauts on the moon by two rocket launches around 2030.

In addition, after the Zhurong rover of China's first Mars exploration Tianwen-1 mission landed on the surface of Mars for 100 days, the China National Space Administration also released the latest batch of Mars images.
