Part on Ukraine-Russia in the U.S. National Security Strategy: To end the war as soon as possible is in the U.S. interest, and the U.S. needs to restore "strategic stability" with Russia; the "unstable minority governments" in Europe have "unrealistic expectations" about the Ukraine-Russia situation and have hindered the peace process.
The content in the new U.S. National Security Strategy regarding the Ukraine conflict centers on adjusting the focus of foreign strategy, clearly stating that ending the war as soon as possible and seeking to restore strategic stability with Russia are the top priorities for the U.S., while also requiring Europe to take more responsibility and criticizing its policies for hindering the peace process.
Listing the end of the conflict as a core interest of the U.S. indicates its desire to withdraw from this costly war as soon as possible, concentrating strategic resources and attention on the Asia-Pacific region to address what it perceives as its long-term main strategic competition.
This statement marks a fundamental shift in the U.S. approach to the Ukraine issue: from "supporting Ukraine at any cost to weaken Russia" to "ending the conflict as soon as possible in a way that serves U.S. interests and adjusting the global layout."
