Abstract:There were relatively more major armed conflicts in the world from 2011 to 2012 than there were the previous year,with the majority of conflicts taking place in the Middle East,South Asia,and Northeast Africa.The Afghanistan war,and the civil wars or armed conflicts in Syria,Yemen,India,Pakistan,and Somalia have attracted global attention.The United States remains no.1 in the world in terms of annual military expenditures.Both the United States and China's neighbors are concerned about the PLA military build-up.According to the Defense Strategic Guidance of the United States 2012, U.S.armed forces will pivot toward East Asia and set the anti-access/regional denial operation as a priority,and the United States will abandon its long-held doctrine of being able to fight and win two wars simultaneously.Instead,it will aim to fight and win one major war while being able to meet and contain any aggressive designs by a second adversary.
