The White House has unveiled a new national security strategy built around President Donald Trump’s “America First” doctrine, prioritizing the halting of destabilizing mass illegal immigration, a sweeping revival of U.S. industrial power, and the elevation of U.S. dominance in the Western Hemisphere as a central foreign policy objective rather than acting as a global police force.
Released on Dec. 5, the document calls for a far-reaching realignment of U.S. military posture, urging the redirection of American resources toward emerging threats in the Western Hemisphere and a pullback from regions viewed as less vital to U.S. security. It marks a sharp departure from decades of post-Cold War doctrine that sought to shore up Washington’s role as a global hegemon.
