Listen "Cut the Budget, Change the Strategy"

Episode Synopsis

The United States has expansive goals in Europe, the Middle East, and the Indo‐​Pacific, and spends nearly a trillion dollars per year on defense. Yet the strategy is still arguably insolvent. Former Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller argues that the defense budget should be cut dramatically to support a fundamentally different grand strategy. Please join Secretary Miller and Justin Logan, Cato’s director of defense and foreign policy studies, for a conversation on defense budgets and strategy. Hosted on Acast.
