Does the Fate of US Arms in Ukraine Create Pause for Thought Ahead War with China

- US weapon systems are performing poorly on the battlefield in Ukraine for a number of reasons including difficulty in sustaining and repairing them, as well as the narrowing gap between US and Russian military capabilities; - US military industrial output is incapable of keeping up with Russian or Chinese military industrial output; - The US is provoking and attempting to sustain wars thousands of kilometers from its own shores, straining its capability to maintain let alone prevail in these conflicts; - A conflict with China will involve challenges many times greater than those the US is unable to overcome amid its proxy war against Russia in Ukraine; - The US can avoid catastrophe by pivoting toward a more rational and sustainable foreign policy within the framework of a multipolar world and by respecting the primacy of the nation state rather than trying to establish the primacy of itself over all other nations; References: NEO - Does the Fate of US Arms in Ukraine Create Pause for Thought Ahead War with China?
