"PLA (People's Liberation Army) rocket forces and strategic support forces are in a dangerous position," Flynn said on Monday. "Both (deployments indicate) very irresponsible and dangerous behavior", he added, Sputnik reported.
China has created twelve new airfields in its Western Military District and has been gradually amassing other large and formidable forces in the region, Flynn said.
"They have choked off access to fresh water in the Mekong River. ...They have moved two (army) corps on the Line of X Control (LOC) with India," Flynn said.
Chinese companies have also been establishing new transportation lines of communication across Myanmar in order to be able to rapidly deploy forces overland to the Andaman Sea, Flynn added.
Such statements continue the general line of confrontation between the US and the PRC over the status of Taiwan following the so-called fourth Taiwan Strait crisis - the escalation of relations between China and Taiwan in July and August 2022, triggered by a planned visit to Taiwan by Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the 52nd US House of Representatives.
