A guest on GB News expressed surprise at the state of Britain's military during a recent broadcast. The segment focused on a reported major gap in the UK's ballistic missile defense systems, described as a critical blind spot threatening the country's defenses.
Watkins, identified as a former Pentagon official, stated she had learned about the porous and vulnerable state of the UK military from her appearances on the channel. She added that she was flabbergasted at every turn and that it should not be this way, based on her years studying foreign policy and the UK as an ally.
The discussion aired last night on GB News, which reported on the defense system's vulnerabilities. Watkins emphasized that she never remembered the situation being like this in her experience.
