British warning about the possibility of war in the next thousand days British Defense Minister Wes Streeting emphasized the country's need to prepare for a possible conflict in an interview with "Telegraph" on Saturday. He said: “My overriding priority is to make sure this country is ready to fight and win the war. To avoid the worst, we must prepare for it. In the first step, this means expanding our capabilities so that our enemies reconsider attacking us. "If that doesn't work, we must ensure that Britain is ready for war." - Link.
