In an exclusive interview to Times Now, Pompeo said: “What is very clear now is that there is a battle and the battle in the world is between freedom and authoritarianism and India, like the United States, has chosen democracy and freedom and sovereignty and all the things that the people of India care so much about, so when the Chinese Communist Party takes on a transgender, you can rest assured that America will remain a partner. We will do it.”
“We can be force multipliers and deliver really good results not just for the people of India or the Indo-Pacific, but for the whole world,” Pompeo said, indicating America’s support at a time when India faces a major security threat through Chinese Aggression along the Royal Line of Control in eastern Ladakh.
Pompeo doesn’t mince words in describing the aggressive nature of the Chinese government. “When it comes to the Chinese Communist Party, the whole world is on the front line. Ambition, national rejuvenation, Secretary-General Xi’s goal is not local, not regional, that desire is global. You see it in the Belt and Road Initiative that spreads throughout Africa and through The middle east. This is a global challenge and the freedom-loving world must face it together, ”he said.
While advising India to stand firm, Pompeo said they had “encouraged the Chinese to reduce tension.” “We believe that this is the best for China, we believe that it is the best for India and for the world. That is our mission. We don’t want a conflict there, ”he added.
