China is the ‘most serious threat’ to the United States, says former security advisor to Obama
key points:
“I’m not sure that we really understand the degree to which China is strategically intent on replacing the United States as the most dominant culture in the world,” said James Jones, a former U.S. national security advisor.
Beijing has been “very clear” about its goals and the U.S. needs to take them “very seriously,” he said.
He also said the U.S. “can win” the technology competition with China.
Beijing has been forthcoming about its long-term goals and is the “most serious threat” to the U.S., according to a former U.S. national security advisor.
“China has been very clear about what its long-term goals are strategically,” James Jones, who served as NSA under former President Barack Obama, told CNBC’s Hadley Gamble. “We need to take that very seriously.”
One Chinese goal is “total control of their own people using technology,” he said at the Atlantic Council Global Energy Forum in Abu Dhabi on Sunday. “They’re making astonishing progress to control every single citizen, whatever he or she does.”
“They’re giving grades for citizenship, which will affect their jobs you’re going to hold, the travel you can do and everything else,” he added, seeming to refer to China’s social credit system. “Where they’re moving is scary,” he said. “They obviously want to export that to other countries.”
‘Trojan horse effect’
He said Beijing is using a “Trojan horse” strategy to gain influence in “many parts of the world.”
“They penetrate the economies, they buy up everything they can, pay off everybody they can...get a chokehold on the economy as much as they can and then make demands for the behavior of the government,” he said.
That’s something the U.S. should address, said Jones.
“One of the things that concerns me a little bit is that we’ve stopped talking about values in the world...even in the democratic countries. We should talk about human rights,” he said.
Asked if the U.S. should support protesters in Hong Kong even if it puts trade talks with China at risk, Jones said: “Is trade more important than human values?”
He noted that the U.S. didn’t trade with the Soviet Union during the Cold War until the Berlin Wall came down and the regime collapsed. “But in China’s case, we were asleep at the switch,” he said. “They were making astonishing progress, and all of a sudden they’re pure competitors.”
“I’m not sure that we really understand the degree to which China is strategically intent on replacing the United States as the most dominant culture in the world,” he said.
