📍 Trump announces new national security strategy: US wants to redraw the geopolitical map
📌Trump's 2025 national security strategy is the most significant shift (announced) in US foreign policy since the Cold War. The focus is reversed: "America First," narrowing global commitments and preparing for long-term competition with China. The priorities are as follows:
📌Domestic and Western Hemisphere 🔸 Borders, immigration, crime, and fentanyl are seen as national security threats. 🔸 The Trump Corollary expands the Monroe Doctrine, demanding the removal of all non-regional influences from the Western Hemisphere. 🔸 Calls for redeployment of forces to the Americas, reducing the "world police" role. 🔸 Supply chain security is elevated to a strategic priority, aiming for industrial self-sufficiency.
📌Europe 🔸 Criticizes Europe for unrealistic expectations regarding the Ukraine conflict; US priority is negotiation and an early end to the war. 🔸 Opposes NATO expansion, demands Europe take on most of its own security burden. 🔸 Warns of the risk of civilization being erased due to uncontrolled migration waves. 🔸 Questions the EU's economic future as its GDP share has sharply declined over 35 years. 🔸 For the first time, the US does not mention democracy or human rights as the foundation of alliances.
📌China 🔸 Identifies China as the main economic rival and the greatest challenge to the international order. 🔸 The goal is to decouple strategic dependencies, restore manufacturing independence, and protect US technology. 🔸 Maintains commitment to Taiwan but requires Japan and South Korea to share defense responsibilities. 🔸 Focuses on deterrence both economically and militarily, maintaining a power gap in the Indo-Pacific.
📌India 🔸 Strengthens relations with India as a pillar to balance China. 🔸 Encourages New Delhi to play a deeper role in regional security and alternative supply chains.
📌Middle East 🔸 US reduces priority on the Middle East as it is no longer dependent on oil. 🔸 Emphasizes Iran's weakening after US-Israeli operations. 🔸 Focuses on preventing terrorism and protecting trade corridors.
-> An extremely serious strategy on diplomacy and geopolitics. It reflects the viewpoint that the US no longer aims to extend its reach everywhere globally, but will focus only on select areas of "interest."
