U.S. Defense Policy
How the next president can be a ‘cheap hawk’
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice once commented on China’s military buildup as looking “outsized for its regional concerns.” What might armed forces consistent with Beijing’s legitimate self-defense requirements look like? Panelists presented their findings on the “right-size” for China’s national security strategy, strategic forces, and ground forces at this seminar.
