Top defense officials say the Ukraine War has blurred the lines, highlighting the global threats.

Top security officials said on Sunday that Russia’s support for Russia in its war against Ukraine has said that the lines between regions have become blurred, and need a global approach to defense, the top security authorities said on Sunday. North Korea has sent troops to fight in front rows in Ukraine, while China has opposed Russia economically and technically supporting international sanctions. Lithuanian Defense Minister Dovils-Calionno told the delegates at the premiere Defense Forum of Asia, that if Ukraine had to fall, it would have a wave effect in Asia and suggested that he could embrace China in its regional claims on Taiwan and in the entire South China Sea. “If Russia prevails in Ukraine, it is not about Europe. It’s not about a region,” he said. “It will also send a very clear indication to small states here in Indo-Pacific that anyone can ignore their boundaries, that no fed excuse can justify the attack.” The comments resonated to French President Emmanuel Macron when they opened the conference on Friday advocating more and more European engagement in Indo-Pacific. On Saturday, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth suggested that European countries should focus on their defense efforts in their own territory and India-Pacific should leave more in the US, but šakalienė said the areas were clearly interconnected. “It’s not a secret that when we talk about the main criminals in cyber security against Japan, it is China, Russia and North Korea,” he said. “When we talk about the main cyber security criminals against Lithuania, it is Russia, China and Belarus – two of the three are exactly the same.” He said that “the convergence of Russia, China, Iran and North Korea is in a rapidly coordinated ruling axis,” demands an integrated response. Iran has been a major supplier of drones in Russia for its war attempt. “In this context, the United States on Indo-Pacific is both the strategic focus and necessary, but it is not the responsibility of the US alone,” he said. Australian Defense Minister Richard Marls told reporters that his main takeway from the three -day conference organized by the International Institute for Strategic Studies, “European countries had the debate”, the way the European countries got engaged in “the debate” had real intention. “This reflects the sense of connection, interrelation … between Indo-Pacific and North Atlantic on the other,” he said. China sent a lower level delegation to a conference from its National Defense University this year, but its Foreign Ministry on Sunday replied to Hegseth’s comments that Beijing was destabilizing the region and possibly preparing to seize Taiwan by force. “No country in the world is entitled to be called another hegmonic power other than America. Self, which is also a primary factor in the Asia-Pacific, a primary factor to reduce peace and stability, “it said that Taiwan’s issue was an internal Chinese case. The ministry said, “America should never play with fire on this question.” The Defense Secretary of the Philippines Gilberto Taodoro Junior, whose country has been rapidly involved in violent clashes with China over the claims of competition in the South China Sea, noted the idea that the US was a problem. He said, “The Chinese government considers impartial and simply stands contrary to the criteria and values accepted by the rest of the world, especially small countries,” he said. “To imagine China -led international order, we only need to see how they treat their very small neighbors in the South China Sea.” He also underlined the international implications of tension in the Indo-Pacific, given that the South China Sea was one of the several sea routes which are “arteries of the global economy”. “The disintegration in any of these sea corridors triggers the wave effect in the continents, affecting trade flow, military deployment and diplomatic posture,” he said.
