They've left out that part before, this is kind of a nothingburger and just reads as warmongering tbh.

military budget that has more than doubled under President Xi Jinping’s 11 years in office

They didn't include the phrase in a report == they're gonna invade?

I guess, if you're a braindead natocucked reporter.

lol

Some guy rolls a dice to decide if they want to mention it. It's the most nothingburger of nothingburgers. It's happened multiple times in the past and it'll keep happening.
