A deep dive into China’s military moves, infrastructure push, and global outreach
In this week’s edition of our China Weekly Report (7th to 13th June 2025), we cover critical developments shaping China’s strategic landscape—from simultaneous deployment of aircraft carriers in the Pacific and live-fire drills in the South China Sea, to deep-sea surveillance and dual-use infrastructure along the Indian border.
Highlights include:
- PLA’s expanding maritime posture across Africa and Southeast Asia
- New military drills near Vietnam and Hong Kong
- Increased DF-17 hypersonic missile deployment and possible tech transfer to Pakistan
- Infrastructure buildup in Xinjiang and Tibet with potential dual-use implications
- China’s latest advances in aerospace, AI surveillance, and 5G network expansion near the LAC
These activities not only reflect China’s global ambitions but also raise serious security concerns for neighboring regions, especially India.
