Unpacking the U.S. National Security Strategy

In this episode of the Asia Chessboard, Mike and Jude are joined
by Dr. Gorana Grgic, a jointly appointed Senior Lecturer at
the Department of Government and International Relations and the
United States Studies Centre at the University of Sydney, to
discuss the recently released U.S. National Security Strategy (NSS)
and National Defense Strategy (NDS). They start off the discussion
by highlighting the key takeaways, and what was missing, from the
National Security Strategy. They then discuss how U.S. priorities
and resource allocations are reflected in the NSS, and what these
signal for U.S. allies. To close out the discussion, they discuss
how the National Security Strategy and National Defense Strategy
fit together to create a broader picture of U.S. strategic
priorities.
