Overview
- The White House released a 29–33 page National Security Strategy that declares the era of mass migration must end and elevates border control as the principal element of U.S. security.
- The document warns Europe risks “civilizational erasure” within decades and castigates EU policies on migration, free expression, demographics and regulatory approaches.
- Washington outlines a global military “readjustment” to prioritize threats to the Americas and to restore American supremacy in Latin America, signaling a step back from the post‑war role of sustaining the entire global order.
- The strategy presses Japan and South Korea to increase defense spending and capabilities to help deter threats to Taiwan posed by China.
- Germany’s foreign minister rejected U.S. admonitions as unnecessary, while EU institutions downplayed a rupture; recent USCIS suspensions of some green‑card and naturalization requests and shorter work permits mirror the strategy’s immigration focus.
