Congress Warned of Erosion in U.S. Military Superiority

The United States has lost its military edge to a dangerous degree and could potentially lose a war against China or Russia, according to a special report released by Congress commission. According to the report, its authors share the views of the Donald Trump administration on Moscow and Beijing as the main threats, but point out the lack of quick steps to implement the relevant strategy. According to the authors of the document, the authoritarian governments of these countries create tools specifically to counter the United States. The U.S. armed forces, which have dominated the world stage for many years, now lack the necessary resources and innovations. In the case of the opening of two fronts at once, the United States may suffer unacceptable losses in manpower and even lose, analysts warn. The newspaper cites the military retirees’ opinion, who believe that Russia and China have been preparing for a large-scale conflict for many years, while the U.S. Army has not been working out such scenarios.
