Wars in Ukraine and Israel, and the risk of one over Taiwan, test American staying power
ROBERT GATES, a former defence secretary who served Republican and Democratic presidents alike, recently issued a bleak warning. America faces an unholy alliance of China, Russia, Iran and North Korea, yet cannot muster a coherent response. “Dysfunction has made American power erratic and unreliable, practically inviting risk-prone autocrats to place dangerous bets—with potentially catastrophic consequences,” he wrote in Foreign Affairs. The next day, Congress seemed to prove him right.
Much will depend on voting rules that House Republicans use and, more important, whether and when Steven Scalise, the Republicans’ choice and a consistent supporter of Ukraine, can secure the gavel. Precisely what weapons America has provided to whom, and what’s left, is mostly secret. Broadly speaking, though, the arms most needed by Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan are different. Ukraine is hungriest for 155mm artillery shells and air-defence interceptors.
