The Middle East is in the “most unstable situation over the past 50 years,” said General Michael Eric Kurill, commander of the Central Command of the United States (CentCom).
Speaking to the Senate Committee on Armed Forces, the Kurilla noted that the “combination of crisis and competition” can create a threat to the United States in the region and provoke a regional conflict, the Pentagon said.

According to the general, ill -wishers contribute to destabilization in the region, using the situation in the gas sector.
In particular, Iran “uses” the situation in the Middle East. “Tehran realizes that he will not be able to achieve its ten-year goal if the country of the region continues to strengthen integration with each other and strengthen partnership with the United States,” Kourilane said.
The CentCom commander is convinced that in Iran they took advantage of the rare opportunity to change the situation in the Middle East in his favor, using their proxies in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, the Gaza Strip, on the western coast of Jordan and Yemen.
These forces, equipped with modern weapons, threaten some critical regions for the United States and the whole world, the general.
Commenting on the situation in Afghanistan, Kurille said that the Neurrorism organization Deaash still retains the intention to attack the United States and West for six months. He also pointed to the growth of the threat of attacks in Afghanistan.
Kurill emphasized that the United States should continue to maintain contacts with their partners in the region.
