US makes 'trouble' with foreign bases, journalist says

The United States is spending an exorbitant amount of money on arms while making "trouble in the world" with its hundreds of foreign military bases, a prominent US journalist said.

In an interview released on Aug 6 by French independent media Elucid, investigative reporter Seymour Hersh talked about his concerns over the US foreign bases.

"Everybody's looking at China, and I'm so happy about it," said Hersh. "China has one foreign base. Do you know how many America has? 800."
