US Defense Strategy Shifts Focus to Western Hemisphere | Pentagon Signals Major Policy Change

Описание: The Pentagon has unveiled its latest National Defense Strategy, marking a significant shift in U.S. military priorities. Homeland defense and protection of U.S. interests in the Western Hemisphere now rank as the top priority, overtaking efforts to counter China.

The strategy focuses on securing U.S. borders, airspace, and maritime domains while ensuring uninterrupted access to strategic locations such as the Panama Canal and key Arctic territories. It also sends a strong message to neighboring countries and allies, calling for greater responsibility in defending shared regional interests.

Deterring China in the Indo-Pacific region now comes second, with the U.S. aiming to prevent Beijing from dominating American allies. The document also emphasizes burden-sharing, urging allies to invest more in their own defense rather than relying heavily on U.S. military support.

Watch this video for a clear and simple breakdown of what this strategy means for U.S. foreign policy, global security, and the future balance of power.
