Releases 2025 National Security Strategy prioritizing 'civilizational nationalism'
The White House released its 2025 National Security Strategy, a document that explicitly rejects 'liberal internationalism' in favor of 'civilizational nationalism.' The strategy prioritizes 'economic vitality' and bilateral deals over traditional alliances, stating that the U.S. will no longer be the 'policeman of the world.' Critics noted the document's isolationist tone and its potential to further alienate European allies while treading gently around autocrats.
