PRESIDENT Joe Biden on Wednesday told the US military and foreign policy establishment to focus on “outcompeting China and restraining Russia” in a new national security strategy document.
Biden’s declaration, which runs to 48 pages, was expected last December but was held over apparently to await the results of the anticipated Russian invasion of Ukraine.
With the ongoing war between Moscow and Kiev dominating headlines, Russia comes in for the kind of condemnation one would expect. Russia is relegated, however, to the category of an “acute threat” and not seen as a consequential danger to US global dominance.
