America is not powerful enough to stand up to China and Russia alone, says Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov

[SIPRA]

India will surely provide "Phull Sapporrt" to her "Pharaand" US.

 

[PakFactor]

If China supplies weapons to Russia, Russia will win the war very soon.

It's been one year, and they had to resort to Iran and North Korea; China is nowhere to be seen. This means the economic threat from the West is on the Chinese mind and have you frozen.

No, Chinese doesn't support Russia's invasion of Ukraine from day one. China tried to discourage Putin from doing so during the Beijing winter Olympic games when Putin was in Beijing, but he didn't listen and launched attack when the Olympic was still going on in Beijing, this pissed off some Chinese leaders.

Lavrov in the OP assumes that China is together with Russia against America. Current events in Ukraine suggests China is not as you alluded to.

Nope, USA is still powerful and can easily take both China/Russia head on, but the fact is that USA is not alone. NATO alliance is still the most powerful Alliance on earth, the only way China/Russia can stand up to USA/NATO and win is when/if they go full nuclear War, and than we all will be dead and rest of the world will look like Metro or Fallout Video Game.

China supports Russia, but not Ukraine war, friends can also have differences. Ukraine also keeps friendly relations with China currently.

When Korean war happened, US also roped in dozens of "allies", they ran away faster than real dogs.

Americans take China's economic and Technological advancement seriously, but when it comes to Military Chinese Military is not battle tested like Russian/American, until They (Chinese) Finally take a strong stand to take back Taiwan and fight an actual war, I doubt US will respect them or take them seriously as a Military threat. American Military is a Giant monster who is hunting for decades while China got fancy shinny new sword but no real combat experience.

When Korean war happened, US also roped in dozens of "allies", they ran away faster than real dogs.

Remind me when was the Korean War happen ? 50's ? 60's ? Dude we are living in 2023, there is no way that you can compare a country's performance in a war fought 50+ years ago to the modern warfare. I hope your Military doesn't think like you do and take America lightly because they " Lose " the war.

The topic of this article is US can not stand up to China and Russia. We must take China's full capability into account under this assumption.

Not to mention the US intention is NOT to go into the North, Truman fired MacArthur just because of that.

and lol, why not pull out the war of 1812 and say we can't even invade Canada......

Yeah, you will continue to have differences conveniently when it comes to facing America.

in 1950 US GDP accounted for 52% of the world total and China couldn't even make screws and bolts by herself, of course we know great changes happened in the past 70 years, but to whose favor?

If Russia could used Ukraine to wear down the European economy, US will be left alone. It’s surprising how well Russia is holding up against entire Europe and US funding Ukraine. Europe is stupid for cutting off it’s own fuel and bleeding billions into Ukraine at the same time.

Even if we take his words, and USA did poor in that Korean war (Hypothetically), still what does that prove ? Even a poor country like Pakistan saw massive advancements in Military tactics and technology in recent years, And here we are talking about a country that has a defense budget of 600+ Billion dollars, with some of the best weapon/technology manufacturers, US is in constantly fighting Wars/Proxies and using its Military overseas, they have the best top of line Fighters/Naval Ships/Subs/AC carriers/AD systems/EW/ Early warning systems/Radar and all of them are tested and saw real combat. Not to mention the reach of USA power across the Globe, and its allies and their resources which would be at USA disposal.

Honestly I would have seriously concerns if PLAA really evaluate USA current Military power based on Korean war.

You had guns and men, back in 50's that's all you need to fight a War specially in the Terrain like Korean Peninsula.

US is being worn down too, and very fast
