“The conflict is coming by the end of this decade, whether it is a cold or hot war, it is coming,” the British Minister of Defense said, in his interview with “The Sun”.
He continued, “We just have to realize that in order to deter, you have to be prepared, you have to be equipped and you have to stand with your friends and allies.”
According to the British “The Mirror”, Wallace expects a war to break out in his country during the next seven years.
