Having drastically increased the Pentagon budget and demanded more spending by NATO, US President Donald Trump is now seriously (?) complaining that all that money could be better spent elsewhere.
Trump lamented the levels of US, Chinese and Russian military spending at a meeting with Chinese Vice Premier Liu He at the White House on Thursday, part of the ongoing talks to resolve the trade war between Washington and Beijing.
“As you know China is spending a lot of money on military, so are we, so is Russia and those three countries I think can come together and stop the spending and spend on things that maybe are more productive toward long-term peace,” Trump said.
I think it’s much better if we all got together and we didn’t make these weapons.
Such a proposal is indeed rich, coming from a president who raised the Pentagon budget to over $700 billion his first year in office, and hopes for a $718 billion or more in 2020 – more than the next 12 countries combined.

Trump has repeatedly hammered NATO allies over their reluctance to spend at least 2 percent of their GDP on their military, including purchases of US weapons systems. He also reportedly pushed for allies to pay the full cost of US troops based on their territory, as well as an additional percentage based on whether their policies “align closely” with Washington.
China’s 2019 military budget was estimated at $224 billion, and Russia’s was far more modest at $44 billion. Meanwhile, the US national debt has surpassed $22 trillion and is continuing to rise.

“咱都别造武器了”,特朗普欲拉中俄共同限制军费开支?

2019-04-05 09:25 特朗普

【环球网报道 记者 朱梦颖】在大幅增加五角大楼军费开支预算,并要求北约增加军费开支后,美国总统特朗普又开始抱怨所有这些钱可以更好地花在其他地方。

据《华盛顿观察家报》报道,当地时间4月4日,特朗普表示,他有兴趣与中国和俄罗斯达成一项新的军备控制协议,以减少“荒谬”的军费开支。

“他们制造了大批武器,惊人的武器。我们也一样。去年,我们只获批了7160亿美元军费开支预算,而今年可能会造更多,”特朗普在白宫告诉记者,“俄罗斯、中国以及我们美国,都在造价值数千亿美元的武器,包括核武器,这太荒谬了。”

“中国在军事方面投入了大量资金,我们也一样,俄罗斯也一样。我想我们可以一起停了这些开支,把钱花在那些可能更有利于长期和平的事情上。”特朗普表示,“如果我们都团结起来,咱都别造武器的话,我想会好很多。”

特朗普的这个逻辑,俄媒都看不下去了。在报道中,RT反复强调,其实特朗普才是那个拉高美国军费开支的人。在上任第一年,特朗普就将美国军费开支预算提高到超7000亿美元,而这一数字2020年更有望达7180亿美元。报道还提到,2018年美国军费开支预算位居全球第一,超过位列其后的12国的军费开支总和。

而与美国相比,2019年中国国防开支预算仅为1.19万亿元人民币(约合1776.1亿美元),约为美国的四分之一。俄罗斯这一数字约为440亿美元。


"Don't make weapons," Trump wants to pull China and Russia to jointly limit military spending?

2019-04-05 09:25 Trump


[Global Network Reporter Zhu Mengying] After substantially increasing the Pentagon's military spending budget and demanding that NATO increase military spending, US President Trump began to complain that all of this money could be spent better elsewhere.

According to the Washington Observer, on April 4, local time, Trump said he is interested in reaching a new arms control agreement with China and Russia to reduce "absurd" military spending.


"They made a lot of weapons, amazing weapons. We are the same. Last year, we only approved a budget of 716 billion US dollars in military spending, and this year may create more," Trump told reporters at the White House, "Russia, China. And our United States is making hundreds of billions of dollars worth of weapons, including nuclear weapons, which is ridiculous."


"China has invested a lot of money in the military. We are the same, and Russia is the same. I think we can stop these expenses together and spend money on things that may be more conducive to long-term peace." Trump said, " If we all unite and don’t make weapons, I think it will be much better."


Trump's logic, the Russian media can not stand. In the report, RT repeatedly stressed that Trump is actually the one who raises US military spending. In his first year in office, Trump raised the US military spending budget to over $700 billion, and that number is expected to reach $718 billion in 2020. The report also mentioned that in 2018, the US military expenditure budget ranked first in the world, surpassing the sum of the military expenditures of the 12 countries that followed.


Compared with the United States, China’s defense spending budget for 2019 is only 1.19 trillion yuan (about 177.61 billion US dollars), about a quarter of the United States. The figure for Russia is about $44 billion.

Trump warns China, Russia: US would win nuclear arms race

President Trump warned China and Russia not to seek to win an arms race with the United States and instead proposed negotiations to expand a recently scrapped nuclear arms control pact.


“We really have no choice,” Trump said of the decision to withdraw from from the 1987 INF Treaty. “Perhaps we can negotiate a different agreement, adding China and others, or perhaps we can't — in which case, we will outspend and out-innovate all others by far.”

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced last week that the United States would withdraw from the treaty — which bans land-based intermediate-range cruise missiles — due to Russian violations of the pact in recent years. The treaty applies only to the former Cold War archenemies, while China has been free to develop such weapons unrestricted by the accord.

Beijing has rejected even preliminary suggestions for a negotiation to expand the deal.

“It would involve a series of complicated political, military and legal issues to make the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces treaty multilateral, and many countries remain concerned about this,” Geng Shuang, a Foreign Ministry spokesman, said Saturday. “A higher priority is to maintain and fully implement the existing treaty rather than establishing a new one.”

China’s development of the otherwise-illicit weapons has spurred congressional calls for a rapid rollout of the land-based cruise missiles.

“Now this action must be backed by American firepower,” Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., said after Friday’s announcement. “The United States must regain the strategic advantage by expediting the development and deployment of a new generation of ground-launched missiles.”

Pompeo Says U.S. Is Withdrawing From Nuclear Arms Control Treaty With Russia

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration said on Friday that it was suspending one of the last major nuclear arms control treaties with Russia, following five years of heated conversations over accusations by the United States that Moscow is violating the Reagan-era agreement.
The decision has the potential to incite a new arms race — not only with Russia, but also with China, which was never a signatory to the 1987 Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, widely known as the I.N.F.
It also comes as the United States has begun building its first long-range nuclear weapons since 1991, a move that other nations are citing to justify their own nuclear modernization efforts.
Taken together, the two moves appear to signal the end of more than a half-century of traditional nuclear arms control, in which the key agreements were negotiated in Washington and Moscow.
It is unclear whether President Trump plans to replace the I.N.F. or to renew another major treaty, called New Start, which drove American and Russian nuclear arsenals to their lowest levels in nearly 60 years. That accord expires in 2021, just weeks after the next presidential inauguration.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced the decision to suspend the accord, declaring that “countries must be held accountable when they break the rules.”

“We can no longer be restricted by the treaty while Russia shamelessly violates it,” Mr. Pompeo said, adding that the United States would terminate the accord in six months unless Russia destroyed its growing arsenal of intermediate-range missiles and launchers.
Mr. Trump said later that “I hope we’re able to get everybody in a big, beautiful room and do a new treaty that would be much better.” He did not define what he meant by “everybody.”
The Russian government counteraccused the Trump administration of looking for any excuse to end the Cold War-era agreement. Dmitri S. Peskov, the spokesman for President Vladimir V. Putin, said the United States failed to negotiate in good faith.

“On the whole, the reluctance of the Americans to listen to reason and to hold any kind of substantive talks with us shows that Washington decided to crush the treaty a long time ago,” Mr. Peskov told reporters.
In a series of public and private comments, the president and Trump administration officials have made clear they are seeking a new strategy that would revive the treaty — but only if all countries that now field such weapons are willing to curb or eliminate them. The current agreement applies only to Russia and the United States.
That would be an enormously ambitious task. It would require China, India, Pakistan, Iran and North Korea to sign on to the same agreement. That is much tougher than negotiating a bilateral treaty between Russia and the United States, which still possess, by far, the world’s largest nuclear arsenals.
While the administration has not yet formally announced any such effort, a range of officials pointed to language used by Mr. Trump at the Pentagon last month to embrace a new missile defense strategy. “For too long, we have been held back by self-imposed limits while foreign competitors grow and they advance more than we have over the years,” he said.
Some experts are skeptical.
“Nobody in the administration has laid out what the action-reaction cycle looks like as the United States makes all these moves — building new warheads, withdrawing from treaties, pursuing new missiles,” said Jon Wolfsthal, a nuclear expert on the National Security Council during the Obama administration.

“The enemy gets a vote,” he added. “The idea that we’re going to do these things, and they’re going to stand still, is nonsensical. They’re going to respond for both political and military reasons.”
One thing is clear: If a new arms race begins, it will be expensive. While the makeover of America’s aging nuclear arsenal and laboratories began during the Obama administration, the ambitions to remake the United States’ nuclear capabilities have accelerated under Mr. Trump.
For the next 10 years, the Congressional Budget Office said in January, the cost of nuclear upgrades has increased to $494 billion, or 87 times the amount Mr. Trump is seeking for his border wall. Over the next 30 years, the estimate is $1.2 trillion.
The move on Friday to suspend and likely end the I.N.F. treaty, once considered the gold standard of arms control agreements, was telegraphed months ago.
The United States began accusing Russia of violating the treaty in 2014, when it revealed that Moscow was developing a new missile that would violate the range limits. The Russian government maintains that missile battalions it has deployed near European borders would not fly far enough to violate the treaty’s terms.
Russian officials have raced to portray the United States as the nation at fault.
They charge that American missile defense interceptors in Eastern Europe could be easily refashioned into offensive weapons, and that the rise of armed drones, which had not been invented when the treaty was signed, now threaten to provide Washington with similar intermediate-range ability without violating the precise wording of the treaty.
American senior national security officials, notably John R. Bolton, the national security adviser, have made no secret of their desire to leave arms control agreements that limit American action.
During the administration of President George W. Bush, Mr. Bolton was a major force behind the withdrawal fromthe Antiballistic Missile Treaty with Russia. Last year, he pressed Mr. Trump to end the 2015 Iran nuclear accord with world powers. In the I.N.F. treaty, Mr. Bolton had an easy target: Even President Barack Obama had considered exiting it.
The question now is whether the United States will begin to deploy new weapons to counter China’s efforts to cement a dominant position in the Western Pacific and keep American aircraft carriers at bay. Much of Beijing’s growing arsenal currently consists of missiles that fall into the ranges — land-based missiles able to fly 300 to 3,400 miles — that are prohibited by the treaty.
China was still a small and unsophisticated military power when Ronald Reagan and Mikhail S. Gorbachev, the last leader of a rapidly weakening Soviet Union, negotiated the I.N.F. agreement.
The decision to leave it took American allies by surprise when word of the decision first leaked in October. Since then, European capitals have been caught between their fears of Mr. Trump’s unilateral instincts and their recognition that Mr. Putin poses a growing threat.
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization, the military alliance that was created to counter the Soviet threat 70 years ago, said on Friday that Russia was “fully responsible” for the breach of the treaty.
“The United States is taking this action in response to the significant risks to Euro-Atlantic security,” said Jen Stoltenberg, the secretary general of the Atlantic alliance.
Mr. Trump’s critics in Congress, however, immediately condemned the decision and pledged to introduce legislation seeking to stop the country from withdrawing from the treaty in six months.
Senator Edward J. Markey, Democrat of Massachusetts, who focuses on nuclear issues on the Foreign Relations Committee, called the treaty’s suspension “a tragedy that makes the world less safe.”
“President Trump and his war cabinet have yet again decided that America should go it alone, this time, by paving the way for a dangerous arms race,” he said.

It seems unlikely that Mr. Pompeo’s announcement will result in a flurry of last-minute negotiations with Moscow, and it could accelerate the Cold War-like behavior among the United States, Russia and China. American intelligence agencies’ warned this week that Russia and China were “more aligned than at any point since the mid-1950s.”
The fate of the treaty has quickly become a test of the struggle inside the Trump administration, and with its allies, over how to handle an increasingly aggressive Russia.
Mr. Trump campaigned on remaking Washington’s relationship with Moscow; the open investigation by the Justice Department’s special counsel is, at its core, about whether he and his campaign aides promised to relieve sanctions and other impediments to Russia in return for financial or electoral benefits from Mr. Putin’s government.
Russia was first to have second thoughts about the I.N.F. treaty. It complained to the Bush administration 12 years ago that newer nuclear powers, chiefly China, were not constrained by its terms. They proposed expanding it to include other major nuclear states.
That logic, said Graham Allison, a Harvard professor known for his studies of nuclear strategy dating to the Cuban missile crisis, “is correct.”
“But whether the Chinese and others would agree — I doubt it,” Mr. Allison said.
If China refused, so would India, which feels threatened by Beijing’s nuclear fleet. If India failed to sign on, Pakistan would reject the limits.
Complicating the diplomatic issue is another, less publicized announcement that recently came from the Energy Department: For the first time in 28 years, the United States began producing a new warhead for a strategic weapon — the long-range weapons devised to reach Russia, China or North Korea.
The announcement was not entirely surprising. In early 2018, the Trump administration indicated in a nuclear strategy review that it would develop a new warhead for an unspecified number of Trident missiles, which are carried aboard submarines. The first of those weapons — called a W76-2 — is now being assembled at a weapons plant near Amarillo, Tex.
In an emailed statement on Wednesday, the National Nuclear Security Administration, which runs the country’s atomic weapons complex, said it was “on track” to complete the initial order and deliver the new warheads to the Navy by the end of this fiscal year. The number it is producing has been kept a secret.
The exact power of the weapon is also secret, but it is widely estimated to be roughly half the Hiroshima blast — what the Trump administration calls a “low yield” weapon.
The Trump administration has argued that it must match Russian strides in low-yield weaponry to deter conflict, by helping “ensure that potential adversaries perceive no possible advantage in limited nuclear escalation.”
But critics see the new class of strategic weaponry as making unthinkable outcomes far more likely — not less. If an American submarine ever fires a Trident missile with a low-yield warhead, critics predict that could provoke a nuclear retaliation before impact.
The cost of the W76-2 and the administration’s other new weapons are raising the price of making over the nation’s nuclear arsenal.
Last week, the budget office updated its projections to account for the coming decade though 2028, lifting its estimate by $94 billion.
The House, now under control of the Democrats, is vowing to review that budget. The buildup could result in a new global arms race; it might also be used as a bargaining chip to produce an arms control breakthrough.
Last year, when Defense Secretary Jim Mattis testified on Capitol Hill about the administration’s new arms policy, he alluded to a benign outcome. “We have to give our negotiators,” he said, “something with which to negotiate.”
 
Dotard is a ZERO IQ or NEGATIVE IQ idiot who assumed the whole world to be As STUPID As HIMSELF !! MAGA!
 
Trump is helping the Saudis to acquire nuclear technology. Another Muslim nation, the one that gave us OBL, is going to have nuclear weapons. Trump is going to be famous in the history book ...the US President who enable a supporter of Muslim terrorists to acquire nuclear weapons.
 
This shows just how good Trump is compared to Putin and Xi.
