South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham spoke with Fox News over the weekend and shared his thoughts on America’s military preparedness in the face of growing threats from China; he says the U.S. isn’t ready.
“I would increase training and get the F-16s they need in Taiwan. There’s a backlog. I would solve that backlog. I would move more forces to South Korea and Japan,” Graham said. “I would up our game. If you don’t up your game now, you are going to have a war.”
“Nobody wants World War III. But what kind of world do you want to live in? Do you want to live in a world where an island called Taiwan could be taken by China?” Graham said. “90% of the high-end microchips are made in Taiwan. They would have a monopoly on the digital economy.”
From The Daily Wire:
Graham’s remarks come as China has conducted aggressive military drills in recent days aimed at intimidating the free nation of Taiwan. The military exercises came after Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-Wen met with top U.S. leaders on U.S. soil last week.
Graham said that deterrence was the best possible option and that it could only be achieved by having a superior military and technology.
