The US can 'ill afford' another war now its rivals are teaming up so well, US general says
Briefly

Gen. Charles Flynn emphasized the peril of a potential war in East Asia, stating that the U.S. military's overextending could exacerbate global issues. "We can ill afford another limited regional war in Asia. Why? Because it will be a global problem for all of us." His comments highlight concerns over current tensions while underscoring that existing conflicts in Europe and the Middle East already stretch U.S. resources thin. Any escalation in Asia could have catastrophic consequences.
Flynn pointed out the synergy among authoritarian regimes, calling their military collaboration a "very dangerous combination." This includes Russia's acquisition of Iranian drones, China's support, and North Korea's military assistance. He noted, "Russia has received Shahed drones from Iran, which it has used to attack Ukrainian cities. It has also received diplomatic and economic backing from China." The rising alliance among these nations poses a growing challenge to U.S. military readiness.
