Beijing: The US Army chief of staff is visiting China amid tensions over American ally South Korea's decision to deploy a powerful missile defence system.

The Army said General Mark A Milley was due to meet today with his Chinese counterpart and other senior People's Liberation Army leaders to find ways to work on cooperation while handling differences.

Milley will also visit the PLA's Academy of Military Science.

Chinese state media have published daily attacks against the US and South Korea, and China has cancelled events involving South Korean entertainers.
