US is the biggest perceived threat to PLA
According to Mr. Yang Yi, US is the biggest perceived threat to the People's Liberation Army. Yang Yi was the former chief of strategic studies at the PLA's National University of Defense.
Yang has said this while he was speaking on the inter-national issues between Japan, US and India. Yi has revealed that while Japan does not have the capacity to tackle the international pressure, India is more worried about China.
Yi has also advised Beijing to maintain good relationship with Washington to cover potential threats and pressures from America. On the Taiwan issue, Yi has said that the problem can be resolved politically. The country needn't to use military action to solve the issue.
Earlier Yi has spoken about the Chinese policies while he was addressing the delegates at the US-China Government Executive Global Leadership Course. The 17-member US group had contained office directors of NASA, Department of Defense and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
The comparative educational dialogue involving senior US officials is the first such interaction between Washington and Beijing.
