I don't know the mentality of the Chinese, so I can't say if this is something to worry about or it's how the leaders speak to their military.

Sabre rattling in my estimation. The only entity those soldiers will be fighting any time soon is probably COVID.

They could mean India. They have had a lot of border skirmishes lately.

Pandemic diplomacy 101
Case in point in today's WSJ: at least 10 of 26 doctors in Indonesia had recieved both doses of the vaccine in June from Sinovac Biotech Ltd. and died anyway. Over a 5 month period, at leas 20 doctors who were fully inoculated have also died, accounting for 20% of of total fatalities among doctors during that time span. Around 90% of Indonesia's 160,000 doctors are inoculated with Sinovac's shots so the overall % is actually small... In Brazil, the efficacy preventing infections was rated at 50% and reduces severe infections. In Chile, the vaccine was effective..two weeks after the second jab...Bottom line: the Sinovac jab does reduce mortality and on hard hit Java many health care workers who were inoculated developed mild cases and recovered quickly. 60 doctors had died in the surge of Dec-Jan when the vaccination was starting. Only 26 have died in June? As one health official put it: "It really can't be said that Sinovac isn't ideal. " Methinks that's putting it dramatically!

He will also meet German business leaders during the trip and visit companies in Bavaria – the largest state in Germany and home to global brands such as sportswear manufacturer Adidas, insurance giant Allianz and carmaker Audi Members of of Mountain Rifles fired a black-powder salute in Munich on Tuesday It being Tiu's day(the traditional German god of war)....couldn't they have been a little more...direct??!
