He said: “World War III has already begun. You already have battles on the ground being co-ordinated in multiple countries.”
The banker added that he looks at what happens if “those things go south” to assess the risk, saying: “we run scenarios that would shock you. I don’t even want to mention them.”
Further painting a bleak and ominous picture, Dimon said the “axis of evil” — China, Russia, North Korea and Iran — are determined to destroy the new world order and the global community established after World War II, reports News.com.au.
He warned: “They’re talking about doing it now. They’re not talking about waiting 20 years. And so the risk of this is extraordinary if you read history.”

He said: “Look at how we tripped into World War II. When Czechoslovakia was split up – sounds a little like Ukraine – that was the end of it. Until they invaded Poland.”

Professor Anthony Glees, an academic at the University of Buckingham, said the world was in the midst of its latest global arms race following reports that North Korea is suspected to be supplying Russia with missiles,
The academic said the world was “approaching the endgame,” adding: “We should be in no doubt that this is a deeply dangerous moment in world history.”
