The United States must prepare for the possibility of a simultaneous war with Russia and China. To do this, it is necessary to expand the potential of the armed forces and modernize nuclear weapons.

Reuters writes about this with reference to the decision of the bipartisan commission on strategic policy appointed by the US Congress.
The commission’s report comes amid tensions with Beijing over Taiwan and other issues, as well as tensions with aggressor Russia over a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
A senior US official involved in the report declined to tell Reuters whether the intelligence briefings indicated any cooperation between China and Russia on nuclear weapons.
We are concerned. There may be some kind of final coordination between them that will lead us to this design of two wars, the official did not rule out.
Reuters writes that the findings will upend the current US national security strategy, which calls for winning one conflict and containing another. It would also require a significant increase in defense spending with uncertain support from Congress.
We are aware of the fiscal realities, but we also believe that the nation must make these investments,” said former Assistant Secretary of Defense for Global and Strategic Affairs Medellin Creedon.
Let us recall that China views Taiwan as a separatist province, which will subsequently again come under its control. However, Taiwan considers itself an independent country with a separate economy and democratically elected leaders. US President Joe Biden believes China’s economic slowdown is reducing the likelihood of Beijing invading Taiwan.
