General Mark Milley, applicant for the upcoming Army fundamental of workforce, also advised his Senate acknowledgement experiencing he darling delivering critical self-defence gear in order to help Ukrainian troops reverse the tanasity of Russian-backed rebels.
“My assessment today is that Russian Federation poses the greatest threat to our national security”, Marine Corps Gen. Joseph Dunford told members of the Senate Armed Services Committee earlier this month in a hearing to consider his nomination to be the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs.
Milley’s appointment is one of several that is reshaping USA military leadership.

The US Army General Mark Milley has warned about Russia’s nuclear capability, saying it is the only country on earth that could destroy the United States.
“If three or four years go by and you lack training, you lack money, you lack equipment, you lack spare parts and most importantly you lack a competent, capable, committed leadership, then you can certainly understand why units fell apart”, Milley said.
The United States has resisted equipping Ukraine with lethal weapons previously due to concerns about escalating the conflict.
As a lieutenant colonel, Milley said, he served as a battalion commander in Korea and worked closely at the time with the 1st South Korean Division along the Demilitarized Zone that separates the two Koreas.
The nominee to be the next U.S. Army chief of staff said Tuesday the US should work together with partners in Asia to verifiably end North Korea’s nuclear program.
