Elbridge Colby Quoted in The Telegraph
Elbridge Colby, a former Pentagon official whose new book, “The Strategy of Denial,” focuses on US-China confrontation, said Micronesia offered the US military “defensive depth” in the region as Beijing built up a formidable naval force. The People’s Liberation Army was “now a power projection military,” he said. “They are building a military to go throughout the region and beyond,” he added, referring to three aircraft carriers by the middle of the decade, and nuclear submarines.
