Discussion on the Nomination of General Austin as Secretary of Defense
This chapter explores the nomination of retired General Austin as Secretary of Defense and discusses concerns about his lack of experience in Asia and narrow expertise in defense companies. It also highlights that his experience in the Middle East could facilitate President Biden's efforts to reduce US involvement in that region, but emphasizes the importance of having expertise and relationships in Asia as well.
