NEW YORK, October 24. /TASS/. Humankind is on its way to another world war over the policy course being pursued by the United States which is pushing Russia and Iran to form a coalition with China, US entrepreneur Elon Musk wrote on his X social media platform (formerly Twitter).
"I think we are sleepwalking our way into World War III," Musk said at an online discussion on X. According to Musk, "US policy has been forcing Russia to ally with Iran and China," an alliance that he said could defeat the West in a global conflict. In the event of a fierce confrontation with China and Russia the US-led coalition would lack a clear industrial power to win, said the billionaire, who also owns Tesla and SpaceX.
Russia having abundant raw materials and China with its phenomenal industrial potential make "a formidable combination," Musk warned as he called on Washington to avoid World War III. "Civilization itself may be at stake," he added.
