JD Vance branded China the biggest threat to America in one of his first interviews since being named Donald Trump’s running mate, underscoring the likely hawkish stance of their administration toward Beijing if elected.

The Ohio senator made the remarks in an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Monday. When asked about the war in Ukraine, Vance said Trump would negotiate with Moscow and Kyiv to “bring this thing to a rapid close so America can focus on the real issue, which is China.”
