The main threat to the United States in the international arena is Russia, and the competitor is China. This was stated by the Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden in an interview with CBS television.
The host asked the politician which country he believed posed the most serious threat to the United States.
“I believe that at the moment the greatest threat in terms of undermining our security and alliances is Russia. Secondly, I think China is the biggest competitor, ”Biden said.
In turn, US President Donald Trump said in September that China creates more foreign policy and other problems for the United States than Russia. Trump explained that due to the “plague” of the coronavirus, which “came to the United States from China,” the American economy has suffered significant damage.
Earlier, on October 22, during the election debate with Trump, Biden said that Russia was allegedly trying to prevent him from winning the US presidential election. Biden promised to punish Moscow for alleged election interference.
The US general election will be held on November 3. They will elect the president and vice president, all 435 members of the House of Representatives and a third of the Senate of Congress, governors of 13 states and territories.
