WASHINGTON (Dispatches) -- Former U.S. national security adviser John Bolton on Sunday sounded the alarm following a China-brokered deal between Iran and Saudi Arabia to restore diplomatic ties.

Bolton warned the United States against “sitting still” as China expands its role in the world and grows closer to Russia, Iran and Saudi Arabia. “We’re sitting still, and the Chinese, the Russians, Iran, North Korea, and several others, are moving to shore up their relations and threaten us in a lot of different places,” Bolton, a U.S. foreign policy hawk, said.
