The United States Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has said China’s pursuit of hypersonic weapons “increases tensions in the region”, promising that the United States would maintain its capability to deter potential threats posed by China.

Austin revealed this in Seoul on Thursday following annual security talks with his South Korean counterpart that focused on challenges from China and North Korea and other issues facing the allies.

Recall that China’s growing military muscle and its drive to end American predominance in the Asia Pacific have triggered unease in Washington, which has also been developing advanced weaponry. China has denied testing hypersonic missiles and says the tests involved a reusable space vehicle.
