11 June 2022 14:48
There are no plans to create a "NATO analogue" in the Indo-Asian region in order to avoid the threat of a new Cold War.
US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin made the remark during a keynote speech on Saturday, Russia-based MK reports.
"We do not seek confrontation or conflict. And we do not seek a new Cold War, an Asian analogue of NATO, or a region split into hostile blocs," he said.
He also noted that the United States is trying to take all necessary measures to prevent the development of a conflict with China.
