US Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall recently issued a chilling warning that a war between the United States and either Russia or China is not only possible but could happen "at any moment," according to media reports.
Speaking to cadets at the U.S. Air Force Academy on November 12, 2024, Kendall emphasized the urgent need to prepare for such a conflict, stating that his main goal was to instill a sense of urgency regarding the potential for war.
He highlighted China's growing military presence in the Western Pacific, particularly around Taiwan and the South China Sea, as well as Russia's increasing willingness to employ nuclear weapons in Ukraine.

He noted that the threat of nuclear conflict has become more real than ever, with Russia's reliance on its nuclear arsenal and China’s expanding nuclear capabilities.
In addition to the rising military tensions between the U.S., Russia, and China, Kendall also mentioned the risks posed by these nations' nuclear capabilities.
He pointed out that the concept of nuclear deterrence, which maintained peace among nuclear powers during the Cold War, is now being tested, and the stakes are higher than ever.
The U.S. official warned that the United States must be prepared for the possibility of nuclear conflict, as both Russia and China are strengthening their nuclear arsenals and advancing their strategies for potential military confrontations.
To avoid catastrophic outcomes, he stressed that the U.S. must maintain its competitive edge and readiness for war if deterrence fails.
Kendall’s deputy, Melissa Dalton, echoed these concerns, urging the U.S. to modernize its nuclear capabilities to stay ahead of the growing threats from Russia and China, both of which possess large and expanding nuclear arsenals.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon has adjusted its nuclear deterrence strategy to account for the increasing risk of facing multiple nuclear-armed adversaries simultaneously.
The U.S. now faces two nuclear powers with expanding capabilities, adding a layer of complexity to global security concerns.
Dmitry Medvedev's Warning
Amid rising tensions, Dmitry Medvedev, Vice Chairman of Russia's Security Council, issued a warning regarding the possibility of nuclear conflict.
Medvedev criticized the discussions in the U.S. about transferring nuclear weapons to Ukraine, a move he considered an aggressive action against Russia.
In a post on Telegram, Medvedev expressed his anger at the idea, suggesting that it could lead to nuclear conflict with Russia and warned of the catastrophic consequences that could follow.
He emphasized that transferring nuclear weapons to Ukraine could be interpreted as an attack on Russia, citing Russia's nuclear doctrine, which permits the use of nuclear weapons in response to aggression that threatens the survival of the state.

Medvedev's remarks highlight the increasingly unstable nature of international relations, especially as Russia has updated its nuclear policy to emphasize deterrence against perceived threats.
The war in Ukraine, now ongoing for more than 1,000 days, has caused significant changes in the global geopolitical landscape.
Western nations, particularly the U.S., have gradually increased their support for Ukraine, providing more advanced weapons and easing restrictions on the use of certain military assets.
However, some argue that this gradual approach has not been sufficient to allow Ukraine to fully defend its territory and repel Russia.
The debate over whether the West is escalating the war continues, with some accusing the U.S. and its allies of fueling the conflict by supplying Ukraine with increasingly sophisticated weapons.
