During an interview with Phoenix TV, Luo Yuan, a PLA Major General, suggested that China should take a tough stance against the US aircraft carrier Washington visiting Korea for a military drill. The interview script was posted on the Phoenix Website. “PLA Major General: If it Comes to the Yellow Sea, the U.S. Aircraft Carrier Will be Our Live Target.”
Luo Yuan: “… but China is not a fish. History shows that China is not a fish moving at the will of others. It is a tiger.”
TV Hostess: “It is a dragon.”
Luo Yuang.: “It is a lion. I am saying this from the perspective of safeguarding the situation in the Korean peninsula. We will launch a tough response.”
