WORLD WAR III

Mason Teemant, Writer

In recent times there has been some speculation that there may be World War III. If there was a third world war, it would be a two front war. China and Russia would be the main two countries involved against us. Russia has just suspended the nuclear war pact that the US had made with them after the Cold War. There have also been the incidents with the Chinese spy balloons that were flying over the country. China has said that in the instance of a war against the US, they would offer full support to Russia. This is disturbing because both China and Russia are in the top ten world powers. While the US has the backing of the UK, France, Germany, Poland, and a handful of other countries. Needless to say,  a ground war between the two powers would be catastrophic. There could even be a short nuclear war before a massive nuclear fallout affecting everyone in the world. Yesterday Feb. 22nd Putin made a global conflict warning.

The possibility of this war has been growing over the past few years. It seems the new foreign affairs team with the Biden administration has been lacking. There has been less communication between the rival countries and less communication often leads to conflict. This can be solved without conflict. If there was a conflict the US would most likely have to hold a draft. This is something that nobody wants. In order to avoid drafting the issues between the countries.
