The U.S. missile defense system is unable to fend off threats emanating from China and Russia. This is the assessment of the former national security adviser in the previous administration of Washington, John Bolton, expressed in an article for The Wall Street Journal.
According to Bolton, the US missile defense system is in “deplorable condition” and “is not able to protect [the country] from ballistic missile strikes”. Washington, according to him, should make “improving missile defense a priority.” Donald Trump’s former national security aide addresses reports that Iran has developed the first hypersonic ballistic missile, mentions North Korean missile launches and the possibility of Pyongyang conducting a nuclear test.
According to Bolton, “Washington has no excuse for how meager the country’s missile defenses remain two decades after the US withdrawal from the ABM Treaty”. symmetrically they only decreased,” Bolton asserts. According to him, “the danger of a missile attack on the territory of the United States has increased significantly in the last two decades, and the [defense] capabilities [of the country] have not been improved properly”, cites the “Focus” Agency.
