In breaking news, a Chinese defense spokesperson raised concerns about the U.S. Golden Dome system, arguing it might trigger an arms race in outer space. During a recent press conference, Zhang Xiaogang, spokesperson for China’s Ministry of National Defense, criticized the U.S. move to deploy space-based weapons, suggesting that these actions could set the stage for dangerous competition beyond our skies.
"The U.S. actions will once again open the Pandora's box," Zhang said, emphasizing that such moves violate the spirit of the Outer Space Treaty. He urged the U.S. to halt its escalating military build-up in space, calling for concrete steps to maintain global strategic stability.
With outer space quickly becoming the new frontier for international rivalry, experts warn this could have far-reaching effects—not only on security but also on innovation, science, and even pop culture. 🚀 Imagine your favorite sci-fi movies turning into a real-life space battleground! For young innovators and global citizens alike, the hope is that peaceful exploration prevails over provocative military maneuvers.
