Mike Pompeo said Russia is too weak to pose a threat.

United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that today Russia does not pose a threat to US national interests, either economically or militarily. According to Pompeo, today China is a much greater threat to the United States than Russia.

When asked by journalists from the American Fox News channel about which country, Russia or China, poses the greatest threat to the United States, Mike Pompeo did not hesitate to say that it was definitely China.

“Russia is aggressive, but unable to take any action. If you want to know who is going to threaten American interests and who is really threatening US economic growth, then China should be the biggest threat to the United States of America."Pompeo stressed.

Moreover, Mike Pompeo believes that today Russia is weakened by economic sanctions from the West, which is killing Russia's military sphere, making it an adversary that poses no threat to the United States.

On the other hand, military analysts believe that if Russia and China can create a military alliance, then it will be much more powerful than the United States.
