The world has entered a new era of superpower confrontation. This was stated by US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegsett during his speech before the shipbuilders at the Virginia shipyard, "Izvestia" reports.

"We are in a new era of superpower confrontation," he said.

The head of the Pentagon also discussed the issue of renaming the US Department of Defense to the Department of War. Hegset emphasized that this is not due to the desire of the United States to participate in conflicts. According to the minister, the USA is not looking for war, but in order to ensure peace, it is necessary to be ready to prevent war and, if necessary, to win it.
