🔶The last U.S. carrier leaves Asia; focus on Iran and the Western Hemisphere

The Associated Press reported on Sunday, August 16 (25 Mordad), that Donald Trump, the U.S. president, his war against Iran has pushed the capacity of the United States’ aircraft carriers to the limits of their ability under pressure, and that, as China shows further signs of more aggressive behavior, the West Pacific has been deprived of the presence of one of America’s most important warships.

According to the report, the aircraft carrier “USS George Washington” is leaving the Pacific Ocean and is expected to replace “USS Abraham Lincoln” in the Middle East; all the while, concerns have grown about the mental health of the sailors and supply problems on this carrier, whose mission has been extended. Lincoln was supposed to return in May, but the length of its time at sea to support operations against Iran was extended.
