US Merges Wars In Eurasia, West Asia
On Friday, even as U.S. President Donald Trump was announcing the end of the latest round of the conflict with Iran, the Pentagon unobtrusively extended the war theatre to the Caspian Sea in a hugely consequential geopolitical thrust.
The incident hardly figured in the Western news cycle.
But CGTN (China Global Television Network), perhaps sensing that the U.S. could be stealthily spreading its war to the Caspian region, reported on July 25,
“U.S. missiles struck a Revolutionary Guards Navy headquarters in the Ziba Kenar area of the Caspian Sea province of Gilan, according to a security official in Gilan quoted by Iranian media. Provincial authorities said U.S. projectiles had also struck the port city of Bandar Anzali, according to the Iranian Labor News Agency.”
