Mattis: U.S. military not strong enough to deter Russia, China

(WASHINGTON EXAMINER) Retired Gen. James Mattis said Thursday that he does not believe the U.S. military is strong enough to deter Russia and China.

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, asked Mattis if America has a strong enough military to be able to deter against those threats and he responded “No, sir.”

Mattis was speaking before the committee at his confirmation hearing to serve as President-elect Trump’s next secretary of defense. During the hearing, he talked about the state of the world order.
