Besides Ukraine, they fear conflicts in Iran and Taiwan.
The media listed the territories in the world where the situation is most tense and at any time a war can start. Ukraine was also named among them, Chronicle.info reports with reference to Channel 24.
Today, the most tense situation is around Ukraine, Iran and Taiwan. French journalist Alain Frachon writes about this.
Putin is ready to go to Kiev
The observer is convinced that Russian President Vladimir Putin is ready to go to Kiev and subjugate the whole of Ukraine.
He took care of demonstrating the military power of his country in advance: cutting-edge missile systems, destructive capabilities in space, large-scale maneuvers on the borders of Ukraine,
— writes Frachon.
The journalist calls the main driving force behind the intensification of the war in Donbass that the United States will probably not want to accept Moscow's ultimatum regarding the so-called & # 171; security guarantees & # 187; and red lines to expand NATO eastward.
Iran is the second place in the world where war can break out
According to the author, the second place where war can start is Iran. The reason for this, he called the fact that at the beginning of 2022 this country was enriched with uranium by 60%. At the same time, experts believe that it takes only a month for the uranium level to reach the level necessary for military purposes.
The journalist believes that this prompts the United States and Israel to strike at Iran's nuclear complex, which will not remain unanswered. In this case, the conflict could cover the entire Middle East. After all, the likelihood of a compromise between Tehran and the United States and the European Union is significantly reduced.
What can happen in Taiwan
As the observer noted, China has become more active in conducting naval exercises in the South China Sea, which could lead to an invasion of the island. In his opinion, the ambiguous position of US President Joe Biden plays up to Beijing and the fact that he does not want to interfere in the situation around Taiwan.
