00:00The Pentagon has just rewritten America's military playbook.
00:24In a move that could reshape global power,
00:27the United States has revealed a new enemy-pronority,
00:30and for the first time in years, China is no longer at the very top.
00:35The U.S. Department of Defense has released its latest national defense strategy,
00:40and buried inside this document is a dramatic shift in how Washington sees the world.
00:46The message is clear, America comes first, geographically, militarily, and strategically.
00:53Previous defense strategies repeatedly warned that China was the greatest long-term threat to U.S. security.
00:59But now, the Pentagon says its number one priority is defending the U.S. homeland and the Western Hemisphere,
01:06not fighting distant conflicts.
01:08That's a major pivot.
01:10The report argues that for decades, the U.S. stretched itself too thin,
01:14spending lives, money, and military power protecting others while neglecting its own concrete interests.
01:21President Donald Trump's influence is unmistakable here, with renewed calls for burden-sharing from allies.
01:27The Pentagon bluntly states that many allies have grown comfortable letting Washington foot the bill for their defense.
01:34Under this new strategy, Europe is expected to take the lead against Russia,
01:38while countries in Asia shoulder more responsibility closer to home.
01:42The U.S., it says, will support but no longer carry the load.
01:47Despite the ongoing war in Ukraine, Russia is described as a persistent but manageable threat — dangerous but not existential.
01:55America's military focus, the report says, is preventing threats from reaching the U.S. homeland itself.
02:01China now ranks as priority number two.
02:04The Pentagon insists it doesn't seek confrontation or humiliation, but instead wants to deter Beijing through strength,
02:12set in conditions for a stable balance of power in the Indo-Pacific.
02:16Notably, Taiwan is missing entirely from the document — a silence many analysts are already questioning.
02:23The strategy also signals a reduced U.S. role in deterring North Korea, saying South Korea is capable of leading that effort — another sign of Washington stepping back.
02:33Perhaps the most striking language focuses on the Western Hemisphere.
02:38The Pentagon vows to protect U.S. access to Greenland, the Panama Canal, the Arctic, and key maritime routes,
02:45explicitly invoking the Monroe Doctrine, a 19th-century idea making a 21st-century comeback.
02:52World leaders are already sounding alarms.
02:55Some warn the rules-based global order is fading, while others say middle powers must unite,
03:01because, in this new world, if you're not at the table, you're on the menu.
03:06This isn't isolationism, the Pentagon insists, it's realism — a United States that is more focused,
03:12more selective, and more willing to let others defend themselves.
