Trump’s security strategy slams European allies and asserts U.S. power in the Americas

1. The Trump administration’s new national security strategy is a stark departure from previous policy, reinforcing the “America First” philosophy by prioritizing U.S. interests and favoring nonintervention overseas. The document sharply criticizes European allies, suggesting their migration and free speech policies could lead to “civilizational erasure” and raising doubts about their long-term reliability as partners. While carrying out a pressure campaign in South America, the strategy also discourages past U.S. efforts to shape or criticize Middle Eastern nations. This “chilly and bellicose” strategy, which aims to reassert America’s dominance, was condemned by critics like Democratic Rep. Jason Crow, who called it “catastrophic to America’s standing in the world and a retreat from our alliances.”
