Missile shield set to boost overall defence

US President Donald Trump has announced new details and initial funding for his “Golden Dome” missile shield system, with geopolitical rival China yesterday accusing Washington of undermining global stability.

Mr Trump on Tuesday announced $25 billion (820 billion baht) earmarked for the project, which he said could eventually cost around $175 billion and would be operational in about three years.

Beijing hit back yesterday, denouncing Golden Dome as a threat to international security and accusing the United States of fuelling an arms race.

"In the campaign, I promised the American people I would build a cutting-edge missile defence shield," Mr Trump said at the White House.

"Today I am pleased to announce we have officially selected architecture for this state-of-the-art system," he said.
