Tricky times.
NATO is feeling the strain of Ukraine’s need for materiel and resources, and manufacturing capacity isn’t scaling proportionally. Their apparent strategy of matching Russia shell for shell burned through a lot of stock and reserves quickly.
The US is stretched maintaining credible capability in Europe, the Middle East, South Korea/Japan, and the South Pacific/Guam/Taiwan.
China is helping Putin bypass sanctions, and possibly acquire weapons (if Wagner is firing North Korean missiles like the US claims, their overlord and protector China had to have authorised the deal).
Iran is supplying Russia with weapons, North Korea is lobbing ICBMs into the Pacific, MBS doesn’t get along with Biden, North and Central Africa are seeing more and more Wagnerites and massive Chinese investment…
If one were to war-game how to outplay the US and NATO, that’s not a bad place to start from.
