This article discusses the things that Biden's National Security Strategy has been focusing on since it was released last winter as a result of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, arguing that the source of US strength will come from a reaffirmation of the nation's democratic traditions. However, it comes at a crucial stage in superpower conflict, as China rises and seeks to rewrite the rules of commerce, surveillance, and influence over other countries, while Russia seeks to redraw national borders. And with the recent developments that they have made, such as the islands when it comes to china and the Russian invasion for soverign land which are both situations that we discussed in class. It demonstrates that the United States is focused on maintaining its position as a global power. It also demonstrates how our unipolar system is beginning to devolve into a bipolar system, and we are doing everything we can to prevent this from happening.
