English:
Gen. Charles “CQ” Brown Jr., nominee to be Joint Chiefs of Staff chair, highlighted his military career and said he “is mindful of the security challenges” facing the nation, as he testified at his confirmation hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee. Several topics were discussed, including military readiness and recruitment, modernization efforts, diversity and equity policies, munitions shortages, and threats posed by adversaries, such as China, Russia and Iran. When asked about the recent blockade by Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) of military leadership promotions and assignments, the general said it not only creates uncertainty with leadership and readiness, but it also impacts military families, recruitment and retention efforts, and the career potential for junior officers.
