Former US Navy Rear Admiral Mark Montgomery has commented on China’s recent long-range missile test in the Pacific Ocean, emphasising the strategic significance of both its timing and location. “The timing was significant, and the location was significant,” Mr Montgomery told Sky News Australia. “The timing is significant in that, maybe it’s the Australian agreement with Fiji, maybe it’s the NATO summit starting tomorrow, but I believe that they were signalling to that, that China’s a maritime power. “Second, doing it from the south west Pacific like that is saying, we note Australia and New Zealand’s … interest in keeping nuclear weapons out of here, but we are going to test wherever we want. “I think there was a lot of narrative in this.”
