Why I Believe the Third World War Is Imminent and Will Likely Erupt in the Form of Regional Proxy Wars
After observing the current global situation, I believe the world is in an extremely unstable period, and the probability of World War III is increasing. Almost all indicators suggest that the shadow of war is looming over the world, and this war will be different from the previous World Wars. World War III is most likely to take the form of regional conflicts and proxy wars, where major powers indirectly participate by supporting different local forces. This type of war both avoids the catastrophic risk of a large-scale nuclear disaster and makes the geopolitical and economic struggles between nations more covert and complex.
I had already warned in my articles at the early stages of these conflicts that the threat of World War III was not impossible, but a reality gradually emerging. From the observations I made at the time, the political situation in the world was rapidly evolving and would inevitably lead to conflict. As international rivalries intensify, the threat of war is becoming increasingly obvious.
1. The Rise of Regional Proxy Wars
The current global situation has already witnessed several regional conflicts, and these conflicts are an extension of the power struggles between major global powers. Take the Russia-Ukraine conflict, for example, which has become a typical proxy war. Although Russia and Ukraine are the main belligerents, the supporting forces behind them come from different major powers around the world.
The outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict has already become a typical proxy war. Although Russia and Ukraine are the main combatants, the supporting forces behind them come from different global powers. Russia has received support from countries like China and Iran, who help Russia fight against the Western camp through military aid, resource support, and economic assistance. On the other hand, Ukraine has received massive military aid from the United States and Europe. This internationalized support has made this conflict not just a bilateral confrontation but also a part of a global great power struggle.
The Middle East situation follows a similar pattern. Despite Israel having a powerful military, it still relies on American arms to sustain the war, while Iran and its allies (such as Palestine's Hamas and Lebanon's Hezbollah) receive military support from China. This shows that the current Middle Eastern conflict is no longer a purely local issue but a battlefield for global power struggles.
2. The Symbolic Significance of the India-Pakistan Conflict
The outbreak of the India-Pakistan conflict further proves the proxy war model between major powers. Pakistan has clearly received military support from China, while India shows close ties with the United States. Such support is not limited to military equipment but could also involve intelligence support, diplomatic backing, and cooperation in various forms. This demonstrates that even geographically distant conflicts are still influenced by the strategies of major powers and become part of proxy wars.
3. South America's Potential Powder Keg
In observing the current situation, I also note the potential dangers in South America. This region holds significant resources, including oil, natural gas, and rare metals, which are crucial in the global competition among major powers. Whether for territorial interests, economic reasons, or resource competition, South America fits the strategic needs of major powers. Once conflict erupts in this region, it will quickly reshape global political and economic dynamics and could become one of the key battlefields of World War III.
4. The Specific Nature of World War III: Regional and Proxy Wars
Compared to the First and Second World Wars, World War III is more likely to occur in the form of regional conflicts. This is because modern military technology and the threat of nuclear weapons make full-scale war too dangerous to bear. However, the competition for power between major nations remains unavoidable, so these nations will choose to indirectly participate by supporting proxies to achieve their strategic objectives.
The destructive potential of nuclear war is so immense, and the world is well aware of this fact. Therefore, countries’ preferred strategy will likely be to exert influence through proxy wars, avoiding direct confrontation. This means the form of warfare will become more covert, with a greater reliance on proxies to compete for influence, conduct information warfare, impose economic sanctions, and other methods to achieve their objectives, rather than traditional large-scale wars.
5. War is Inevitable, But the Form Will Change
As human history has shown, war has never ceased, whether it was World War I, World War II, or the Cold War. Behind every conflict lies a battle for power and resources. Against this backdrop, the outbreak of World War III is inevitable, but its form will be significantly different. With the existence of nuclear weapons, traditional large-scale wars will become unrealistic, and proxy wars and regional conflicts will become the dominant form.
Conclusion:
World War III is unlikely to break out in the same form as the previous World Wars, where large-scale global war occurred. Instead, it is more likely to take the form of regional conflicts and proxy wars. From the Ukraine conflict, the Middle Eastern situation, the India-Pakistan conflict, to the potential risks in South America, we can clearly see how major powers are supporting different factions to fight for global influence. As global resource competition intensifies and geopolitical tensions rise, the situation in the coming years may worsen, and this type of war will show significant differences.
Therefore, I believe the global situation is heading in a more complex and dangerous direction, and this third world war will gradually emerge through one proxy war after another.

為何我判斷第三次世界大戰以迫在眉睫，極有可能以區域性代理人戰爭的形式爆發
在觀察當前全球形勢後，我認為世界正處於一個極為不穩定的時期，並且第三次世界大戰的爆發機率正越來越高。幾乎所有的指標都顯示，戰爭的陰雲正籠罩全球，且這場戰爭將有別於以往的一戰和二戰。第三次世界大戰極有可能以區域性衝突和代理人戰爭的形式進行，即大國間通過支持不同的地方勢力來間接參與戰爭。這樣的戰爭方式既避免了大規模的核災難風險，又讓各國在地緣政治和經濟利益的博弈中更加隱蔽且複雜。
我早在這些衝突爆發初期時，就已經在文章中警告過，第三次世界大戰的危機並非不可能，而是一個逐漸顯現的現實。從當時我發表的觀察中來看，世界的政治局勢正在迅速演變，並將不可避免地走向衝突。隨著國際間各方勢力的對立加劇，戰爭的威脅愈加明顯。
1. 區域性代理人戰爭的興起
當前的世界局勢已經出現了多個區域衝突，這些衝突正是全球大國間權力鬥爭的延伸。以俄烏衝突為例，這場戰爭已經成為典型的代理人戰爭。雖然俄羅斯和烏克蘭是主要交戰方，但背後的支持力量卻來自全球不同的強國。
俄羅斯獲得來自中國、伊朗等國家的支持，這些國家通過軍事援助、資源支持和經濟支持等方式幫助俄羅斯對抗西方陣營。
烏克蘭則在美國和歐洲的支持下，獲得了大量軍事援助。這種國際化的支持力量，使得這場衝突的規模不僅僅是兩國之間的對抗，而是全球大國博弈的一部分。
中東局勢亦呈現類似的格局。以色列儘管擁有強大的軍事力量，但仍然依賴美國的軍火支持來維持戰爭，而另一邊的伊朗及其盟友（如巴勒斯坦的哈馬斯和黎巴嫩的真主黨）則得到來自中國的軍事支持。這一切證明了，當前的中東衝突不再是單純的地方性問題，而是全球勢力的角力場。
2. 印巴衝突的象徵意義
印巴衝突的爆發再次印證了大國間的代理人戰爭模式。巴基斯坦明顯得到了中國的軍事支持，而印度則顯示出與美國的緊密關係。這樣的支持不僅限於軍事裝備，還可能涉及情報支持、外交背書等多方面的合作。這表明，即便是地理上遙遠的衝突，依然受到大國策略的影響，並成為代理人戰爭的一部分。
3. 南美洲的潛在火藥庫
在觀察當前局勢時，我也注意到南美洲的潛力與危險。這一地區擁有大量的重要資源，包括石油、天然氣、稀有金屬等，是全球大國爭奪的重要領域。無論是地域利益、經濟利益還是資源爭奪，南美洲完全符合大國戰略的需求。一旦該地區爆發衝突，將迅速牽動全球政治經濟格局，並且可能成為第三次世界大戰的重要戰場之一。
4. 第三次世界大戰的特殊性：區域性與代理人戰爭
相比以往的一戰和二戰，第三次世界大戰更有可能以區域性衝突的方式發生。這是因為現代軍事技術的發展和核武器的威脅使得全面戰爭變得過於危險，幾乎無法承受。然而，世界大國的權力爭奪仍然是無法避免的，因此這些國家選擇通過間接參與、支持代理人來達成自身的戰略目的。
核戰爭的破壞性過於巨大，並且全球都清楚了解這一點。因此，各國的首選策略將更多是通過代理人戰爭來發揮其影響力，避免正面衝突。
這意味著，戰爭的形式將更加隱蔽，更多的是利用代理人進行影響力競爭、信息戰、經濟制裁等方式來達成目的，而不再是傳統的大規模戰爭。
5. 戰爭是必然的，但形式會改變
正如人類歷史所顯示的那樣，戰爭從來沒有停止過，無論是一戰、二戰還是冷戰，每一次衝突的背後都暗藏著權力與資源的爭奪。在這樣的背景下，第三次世界大戰的爆發是必然的，但其形式將會有顯著區別。隨著核武器的存在，傳統的大規模戰爭將變得不現實，代理人戰爭和區域衝突將成為主要的形式。
總結：
第三次世界大戰並不像過去一戰和二戰那樣可能以全面性的大規模戰爭爆發，而更有可能以區域性衝突和代理人戰爭的形式出現。從烏克蘭衝突、中東局勢到印巴衝突，再到南美洲的潛在風險，我們可以清楚地看到各大國如何通過支持不同勢力來爭奪全球影響力。隨著全球資源爭奪的加劇和地緣政治的緊張，未來幾年內的局勢可能將進一步惡化，並且這種戰爭形式將顯示出顯著的區別。
因此，我認為全球形勢正朝著一個更加複雜和危險的方向發展，而這場第三次世界大戰將在一場又一場的代理人戰爭中逐步浮現。
