"Preparing for the Unthinkable: US Readiness for Simultaneous Wars with China and Russia"
A bipartisan panel appointed by the US Congress has warned that the United States must be prepared for the possibility of simultaneous wars with Russia and China. The panel's report calls for expanding conventional forces, strengthening alliances, and enhancing the nuclear weapons modernization program. The report suggests that there may be coordination between China and Russia in some way, which could lead to a two-war scenario. The findings contradict President Joe Biden's belief that the current US nuclear arsenal is sufficient to deter both countries. The report emphasizes the need for increased defense spending and warns that decisions must be made now to prepare for the threats posed by China and Russia in the coming years.
