-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Report: Russia, China join forces against US Saturday, 30 September 2000 16:23 (ET) Report: Russia, China join forces against US WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 (UPI) -- A congressional report has warned that Russia and China have grown closer recently in order to pursue a joint goal of reducing U.S. power and influence around the world, the Washington Times said Saturday. The report, drafted by a group of House Republican analysts that blamed the growing alliance on the Clinton administration's "mismanagement" of U.S. policy toward Russia, has had the effect of turning Moscow toward China in a partnership on arms sales that dovetails with desires to increase military capabilities. "The sale of increasingly sophisticated Russian weaponry and technology to (China), and the establishment of close security cooperation between Beijing and Moscow, calls into question the fundamental prediction under-girding much of the Clinton administration's security planning: that the United States will face no peer competitor in the military field during the next two decades," the report said. Russia and China have also been cooperating recently in areas such as intelligence, and apparently desire to reduce U.S. influence in the Pacific. Rep. Curt Weldon, R-Penn., a member of the House GOP panel that received the report, said the White House muffed a chance in 1992 to create a formal security alliance with Russia, and that Moscow decided to go elsewhere for such a partnership. The alliance between Moscow and Beijing was cemented, the newspaper said, when a U.S. bomb struck the Chinese embassy in Belgrade during the Kosovo air campaign, and when NATO expanded its membership over Moscow's objections. "We drive Russia and China together," Weldon told the Times. "The level of high-technology weapons transfers has never been higher." -- Copyright 2000 by United Press International.
