Former President Donald Trump expressed grave concerns about the direction of world events, asserting that the United States is edging towards "World War III territory." He attributed this escalation to the current administration's foreign policy decisions, particularly regarding conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East.
Former President Donald Trump raised alarm at a Fox News town hall in Pennsylvania, declaring that the United States is perilously close to entering "World War III territory." His comments were a scathing indictment of the current Biden-Harris administration's foreign policy, which he believes has exacerbated tensions and led to armed conflict.
Trump's assertion is rooted in his perception that the world has become a more dangerous place under the current leadership. He cited the ongoing war in Ukraine, which erupted when Russia invaded its neighbor in 2022, and the outbreak of another conflict in the Middle East last October, when Hamas launched attacks on Israel.

"We're heading into World War III territory, and because of the power of weapons, nuclear weapons in particular, but other weapons also, and I know the weapons better than anybody because I'm the one that bought them," Trump stated.
He pointed to his own experience in the Oval Office, claiming that such conflicts would not have occurred under his watch. "We would have made a fair deal with Iran," Trump said, arguing that economic pressure on the country would have averted the current unrest.

Furthermore, Trump expressed deep concern about the potential for nuclear armament. "I understand [nuclear weapons] maybe better than anybody," he said, referencing his uncle who was a professor at MIT. "You need a president that's not going to be taking you into war."
According to Trump, the world is facing unprecedented challenges, and he warned that the current administration's actions are pushing it to the brink of global catastrophe. "We won't have World War III when I'm elected," he asserted. "But with these clowns that you have in there now, you're going to end up having World War III, and it's going to be a war ... like no other."

Trump's comments come at a time of heightened global tensions. The war in Ukraine continues to escalate, with Russia recently annexing four Ukrainian regions. The conflict in the Middle East has also remained unresolved.
The former president's remarks have sparked reactions from both supporters and critics. Some have echoed his concerns, while others have dismissed them as exaggerated and alarmist. However, his statements have undoubtedly raised questions about the future of international relations and the potential for further conflict.
