Original Note:
Mark Milley secretly called his Chinese military counterpart twice in 2020/2021: 1) to give assurances the US did not intend to attack China, and 2) to assure him that Milley would let China know in advance if America did attack. Neither call was authorised by the President. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-top-general-secretly-called-china-twice-trump-term-ended-report-2021-09-14/ https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2381
