China on ‘disturbing’ path to eclipse US military by mid-century, Milley warns
China is on a “disturbing" path to become militarily “superior" to the United States by mid-century, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley testified Wednesday.
“Milley warned of the growing alliance between China and Russia, and told lawmakers on Wednesday that the two countries are "getting closer together," especially with regard to nuclear capabilities.”
"That’s troublesome," Milley said. "And then, if you add in Iran as the third — those three countries together are going to be problematic for many years to come."
