Analyzing the Pentagon’s 2023 China Military Power Report
Last month, the Pentagon released its latest China Military Power Report (CMPR), which focuses on key military and security developments in China and challenges facing the US military. What does the latest report indicate about China’s capabilities and strategic competition more broadly?
On Monday, October 23, the Scowcroft Center hosted Analyzing the Pentagon’s 2023 China Military Power Report, which examined key takeaways from this year’s CMPR and the challenge of engaging in strategic competition across multiple theaters. Speakers included Ely S. Ratner, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Indo-Pacific Security Affairs, and Michael S. Chase, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for China, Taiwan and Mongolia.
