They don't speak with us until the direction has been set at the top of the political system. So let's stop chasing these Chinese generals and admirals. You know, if they want to talk to us, They have our phone numbers. The area code is 202.
You can talk anytime you damn well please, but just call us because we're not going to chase you to the ends of the earth to make ourselves in an inferior position. And by the way, the defense minister of China is not Lloyd Austin's counterpart. The defense minister in China is a much junior official to Lloyd Austin. So Lloyd Austin, he shouldn't be trying to talk to the defense minister.
He should be trying to talk to his real counterpart in the Chinese system. His real counterpart is actually Xi Jinping in his role as chairman of the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party. And Lloyd Austin should insist on speaking to Xi Jinping when they have, quote unquote, counterpart discussions.
