The appointment of China's new defense minister, General Dong Jun, has attracted widespread attention. Dong Jun is the first Navy commander to be transferred to the post of Minister of Defense, and the meaning behind this is food for thought. At the same time, there are voices in the United States asking for Secretary of Defense Austin**. What is the inside story behind this incident? And how will the United States respond to this situation? Regarding the pressure on Austin, not only from the Republican Party, but also from the Democratic Party and the US Department of Defense, there are also voices of skepticism. What is the response of the US Department of Defense? Let's take a look at the details of this incident. According to reports, the recent "secret hospitalization" of Austin has aroused strong concern in the United States.
The United States revealed that after Austin was hospitalized, the Pentagon did not inform Biden and other senior leaders in a timely manner, a news that shocked White House staff. Austin spent four days in the intensive care unit, while key information about his condition, such as the lack of detailed disclosure, has sparked questions and discontent among the public. In response, Republican Rep. Rosendale from Montana plans to propose a resolution against Austin, and Trump and other Republicans have also demanded Austin. At the same time, there are also doubts within the Democratic Party and the US Department of Defense. Democratic Chairman of the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee, Reid, said the Pentagon needs to maintain transparency and accountability and cannot allow a similar lack of disclosure to happen again.
As for the Republican Party's condemnation, US Department of Defense spokesman Ryder said that Austin does not have any plans to leave the company at present, and he is still focused on fulfilling his duties as Secretary of Defense and defending the United States. This incident has apparently caused some confusion in the rear of Biden **. However, regarding Austin's "concealed admission", the White House *** committee said that "there are no other plans other than to let Secretary of Defense Austin stay in office and continue to play the leadership role he has always had." The White House does not seem willing to hold Austin accountable too much, but is trying to quell the growing uproar. This attitude has led to more doubts and dissatisfaction. What kind of problems does this incident reflect? What is the public's perception of the duties and conduct of the US Secretary of Defense?
