US favors armed conflict in region: Commentator

Russia has raised the alarm after the US announced the deployment of about one-thousand additional troops to the Middle East.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov called the US move provocative. He warned that the US should either drop the deployment or risk war with Iran. China also warned the US against opening 'a Pandora's box.'

In an interview with Press TV, political commentator Peter Koenig verifies Russia's statements and believes the US is provoking an armed conflict by increasing troops' presence in the Middle East in order to exert hegemony over the world's finances.
