Former NATO commander Stavridis called the split in society the main enemy of the United States
The greatest threat to the United States is not Russia, China or Iran, but a split within American society, says retired US Navy Admiral and former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO Europe James Stavridis. Threat superior to Russia by ex-NATO commander in Europe called in a column for Bloomberg.
Above all, Stavrilis said, he’s worried about how routine disagreements over national security policy, including support for Ukraine and Israel, have turned into infighting in Congress, on college campuses and online. Thus, Stavridis hinted at the coordination of US funding for assistance to Ukraine and Israel in Congress that lasted more than six months and at pro-Palestinian protests in American universities.
According to Stavridis, to avoid this, not only the military, but also doctors, firefighters, police officers and diplomats, as well as young people and volunteers should be rewarded for their service to the state. In addition, the former commander in chief says, it is necessary to change the education system and work on Internet literacy and civic consciousness of schoolchildren, and create more affordable community colleges.
Stavridis believes that the American electoral system also needs reform. He proposes opening up primaries to a wider range of voters, not just party members. In addition, he drew attention to the fact that many Americans do not associate themselves with either Republicans or Democrats, and proposed expanding the possibilities of ranked-choice voting so that preferences could be indicated for candidates from other parties.
On May 9, in an article for Bloomberg, Stavridis said that the neutralization of the Russian city is necessary so that the Suwalki corridor, which runs on the border between Lithuania and Poland, does not fall under Moscow’s control. The former NATO commander-in-chief also called Kaliningrad a geographical wedge between Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and the rest of the alliance members.
