Columnist Mark Katz describes a scenario of a civil war that will lead to the disintegration of the United States.

Axar.az reports that he wrote about it in the "National Interest" newspaper.

"How can this happen? The United States will be in a demographic transition from a white population to a black population in 2040. White Americans, especially conservatives, will not agree to a voluntary transfer of power. Instead, they will try to maintain the status quo by force." , - said the author.

He said the worst-case scenario for Washington was the collapse of the country through civil unrest.

"This will allow other major powers to fill the gap left by the fall of the United States in the international arena."
