The Military Imbalance In The Taiwan Strait
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth drew some controversy over the weekend after he called China a "real" and potentially "imminent" threat and said that the country was “credibly preparing to potentially use military force to alter the balance of power in the Indo-Pacific”.
The comments were made Saturday at the Shangri-La Dialogue security summit in Singapore.
In the chart below, Statista's Katharina Buchholz shows the balance (or rather imbalance) of military power in the Taiwan Strait.

China's clearly stated goal has been "reunification" with Taiwan but it has never ruled out the possibility of using military force to achieve this.
In recent years, it has modernized its military, introducing the J-20, an indigenous 5th generation stealth fighter.

Gabbard Says US Speech At Shangri-La Summit Shows Commitment To Peace in Indo-Pacific
Authored by Catherine Yang via The Epoch Times,
Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence, said on May 31 that the United States' message to Indo-Pacific partners at the Shangri-La Summit was a message of peace.
“The overarching message is very consistent with what President Trump has been speaking about throughout his administration and his term in office, which is that he wants to be the president of peace,” Gabbard told Fox News from the summit.
She said the region contains many nations, each with complex histories, cultures, and needs that are full of nuance.
“There are over 40 countries who are present here, over 500 people, and that dialog, that diplomacy, that increasing of understanding between us as countries, is what is essential towards making progress towards that peace and stability, reducing the likelihood of misunderstanding, miscalculation and decisions being made based on either...

US Is 'Major' Cause Of Ukraine War: Beijing Goes On Attack As Hegseth Tells Asia Allies China Threat Is 'Imminent'
China is pushing back hard against new Western criticisms of its foreign policy, as French President Emmanuel Macron and US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth went on the attack, hurling sharp criticisms at Beijing during the ongoing Shangri-La Dialogue security summit in Singapore, which noticeably China's Defense Minister Dong Jun chose to skip.
A fresh, strident Chinese denunciation was formulated at the United Nations in New York. Beijing typically is very careful with its Ukraine war statements, seeking to present itself as an outside, neutral and objective mediator, urging peace. But now Chinese officials are blistering angry over the ramped-up anti-China messaging coming from Washington and Europe. The rhetoric is clearly getting less restrained on all sides, as increasingly hot spots in Eastern Europe get closely linked to Asian flashpoints.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegset...
