【大紀元3月18日報導】(中央社記者林文集華盛頓十七日專電)美國中央情報局長高斯今天在國會作證時指出,中國軍事擴張正對美國造成新問題,中國增強的軍力可能對區域美軍構成威脅,中國最近制定反分裂法即說明了這一點。
美國參議院軍事委員會今天就美國國家安全面臨的威脅舉行聽證會。高斯作證時指出,在中國方面,北京的軍事現代化和軍事擴張正對美國構成新的問題,他知道參院軍事委員會已注意到這一點。
高斯表示,中國軍事力量增強看起來可能會威脅到亞太區域的美軍,中國最近制定的反分裂法,即說明其意圖。
中國十四日通過的反分裂法列舉出對台灣動武的條件,已引發美國國會關切,美國行政部門也表明反對以武力決定台灣前途。
參議院軍事委員會主席華納今天也表示,要注意中國的威脅。他說,美國不能無視於包括中國正加速軍事擴張在內的威脅。他提到的威脅美國安全的問題還包括恐怖主義、朝鮮半島、伊朗、大規模毀滅性武器擴散、中東等情勢。940317
(reference for foreign language desk)HEARING OF THE SENATE ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEE SUBJECT: THREATS TO U.S. NATIONAL SECURITY CHAIRED BY: SENATOR JOHN WARNER (R-VA) WITNESSES: PORTER GOSS, DIRECTOR, CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY; AND VICE ADMIRAL LOWELL JACOBY, DIRECTOR, DEFENSE INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
Porter Goss: In China, Beijing’s military modernization and military buildup, which I know have not gone unnoticed by this committee, are posing new questions for us. Improved Chinese capabilities seemingly threaten U.S. forces in the region. China’s recent legislation on anti- secession speaks for itself.
SENATOR JOHN WARNER We must not lose sight of the other threats, as I say, around the world. It’s a complex one and an ever-changing one. Indeed, the Korean peninsula, Iran, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and weapon technologies, accelerating military buildup underway in China — these are trends which bear on our current security situation and future.
