Trump changed the National Security Strategy
#Conversations with AI: #News ReviewNational Security Strategy ( #NSS) was recently released by the #Trump administration on Thursday, December 4, 2025. This #document marks a significant shift from previous strategies, including his first term’s NSS and the most recent Biden administration strategy, by formalizing an “America First” and non-interventionist approach.Yes, a new
Key Changes and Takeaways
The 33-page document, which focuses heavily on domestic priorities and a narrowed U.S. global role, introduces several key changes:
Focus on the Western Hemisphere: The strategy heavily emphasizes U.S. dominance in the Western Hemisphere, calling for the reassertion and enforcement of a “Trump Corollary” to the 19th-century Monroe Doctrine. This includes deploying military assets to the region to combat drug cartels and migration and denying non-hemispheric competitors influence.
Deprioritization of Europe: The document is highly critical of European allies, suggesting they take primary responsibility for their own security. It calls for an expeditious end to the war in Ukraine and balancing relations with Russia to reestablish “strategic stability,” while criticizing European officials for “unrealistic expectations” regarding the conflict.
“America First” Economics: Economic strength is defined as national security. The strategy advocates for a strong industrial base, securing critical supply chains, and using tariffs and trade deals to protect U.S. jobs and innovation.
Shift from Democracy Promotion: In a break from previous administrations, the strategy largely avoids mention of promoting democracy or human rights abroad. Instead, it prioritizes business interests, profit, and working with “like-minded” or “patriotic” parties in Europe, which analysts view as a nod to far-right movements.
Downplaying Climate Change and Terrorism: The strategy minimizes the focus on global threats like climate change, which it refers to as a “threatening ideology,” and shifts the emphasis away from counter-terrorism operations, instead focusing on mass migration as the primary homeland security threat.
Language on China and Russia: While the document mentions competition with China, the language is seen as softer than the Biden administration’s strategy and Moscow has welcomed some of the adjustments, noting they align with Russia’s own vision.
The document is available for review on the official White House archives website.

kozak’s resignation letter
Dmitry Kozak submitted a formal resignation letter in September 2025 and a separate, private letter to President Vladimir Putin in which he harshly criticized the war in Ukraine. The contents of the private letter have been described by sources but have not been made publicly available in full.Russian official
Key Details
Resignation Date: Kozak officially resigned from his position as deputy head of the Russian Presidential Administration on September 18, 2025.
Content of the Private Letter: According to reports from the independent Russian media outlet Agentstvo, the personal letter contained a “very harsh” critique of the decision to invade Ukraine. Sources indicate Kozak used “very strong terms” to condemn the attack.
Official Resignation: The official resignation submitted to the Kremlin was a standard, voluntary letter, which was confirmed by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.
Opposition to the War: Kozak was reportedly the only high-ranking official within Putin’s inner circle to have openly opposed the war from the beginning. He had previously tried to persuade Putin not to launch the full-scale invasion in February 2022 and later pushed for peace negotiations, which were rejected.
Aftermath: Since his resignation, Kozak has traveled abroad frequently, reportedly for medical treatment, and holds no new government position. His duties have largely been taken over by Sergei Kiriyenko, an official who supports the war.
The contents of the private, critical letter remain confidential, with only descriptions of its tone and general message emerging through investigative journalism sources.
