The Pentagons 2026 National Defense Strategy prioritizes homeland defense and deterring China, while offering limited support to allies. It emphasizes respectful relations with Beijing and labels Russia a manageable issue. The strategy also focuses on securing borders and restoring U.S. military dominance in Latin America, echoing Trumps policies. This marks a shift towards a more inward focus for the military, reshaping alliances and Americas global footprint.
