This is an aspect of what we call “competition” @ElbridgeColby
The President of Panama, José Raúl Mulino has announced that following his meeting yesterday with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Panama has decided not to renew its 2017 Memo with China, regarding their “Belt and Road Initiative” and that they will look towards voiding

The White House’s preference for de-escalation has ushered in the most dangerous period I can remember.

The clear lesson here that *denial* works as @chairmang points out in the piece. Russia is being stopped by Ukrainians fighting for their nation. Putin would be at the Polish border if all he faced were sanctions and G-7 condemnations. 2/

Check out Colby and Slocombe in WOTR as they discuss “presence” - @WarInstitute @AdaptingTheArmy @ElbridgeColby - hard to deter at the operational level if you can’t “be there”

America should act now to strengthen its Western Pacific forward posture. Neglecting it further raises the risk of war — and defeat. It is now widely

many good points @ElbridgeColby - can’t defeat a “fait accomplis” without being there...speed of action is fundamental - history shows, when you have near peer parity in nuclear power, conventional forward deterrence becomes MORE critical...not less ...

Wait a minute. Say what you will but Trump Admin was 💪 on Taiwan . Blaming US *attempt to focus* & clarity on need to confront China for China’s aggressiveness against 🇹🇼 is frankly absurd. Beijing is menacing all by itself. Trump Admin recognized need to address the problem. 1/

Army Seeks Electric Scout By 2025.The Light Reconnaissance Vehicle, an off-road truck to scout ahead of airborne and light infantry units, could lead the Army’s move to electric motors. But electrifying cargo trucks, let alone tanks, could take decades.
