Top US air force general predicts China conflict in 2025

Financial Times/Demetri Sevastopulo/1-28-2023

A top American air force general [General Mike Minihan/US Air Mobility Command] has predicted that the US and China will probably go to war in 2025, in the most dramatic warning yet from a senior military officer about the likelihood of a conflict over Taiwan.

USAGOLD note: Let’s hope he’s wrong. A war, in our view, benefits neither side. The status quo is a better option – a thought, in retrospect, Russia may now be entertaining with respect to its Ukraine incursion. Minihan is concerned that circumstances have embloldened China’s Xi.
