In a new book Peril out from Bob Woodward and the Washington Post’s Robert Costa, it is revealed that Joint Chief’s Chairman General Mark Milley told Gen. Li Zuocheng of the People’s Liberation Army that if the US were to attack China, Milley would let Li know before it happened.
Milley was apparently afraid that President Trump would engage in hostilities, and went around Trump in order to take power, by speaking with Gen. Li Zuocheng of the People’s Liberation Army.
Milley assured him that the US would not engage in armed hostilities with the communist nation, according to the Washington Post. The book comes out next week.
Two calls were made. The first call was made by Milley on October 30, 2020, and the second was on January 8, 2021. In October, Milley believed that the US was considering and preparing for a military attack. Milley said “General Li, I want to assure you that the American government is stable and everything is going to be okay. We are not going to attack or conduct any kinetic operations against you.”
