On Friday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “Morning In America,” Pentagon Press Secretary Brig. Gen. Patrick Ryder reacted to Chinese fighter jets buzzing American jets in international airspace over the Pacific Ocean by stating that the incident is part of “a pattern of behavior we’ve seen from the PRC” and that we’re “continuing to work very closely with our allies and partners throughout the region to send that message of deterrence to China.
Ryder said, “Well, this is a part of a series of behaviors that we’ve seen, a pattern of behavior we’ve seen from the PRC as it relates to aircraft. As you know, they’ve been doing this. We’ve addressed it. Recently, we released a report that highlights the number of these types of dangerous acts. And we certainly call on the PRC to discontinue this type of behavior.
