In the context of the recent US National Security Strategy, we bring to your attention an interview with undersecretary of war for policy Elbridge Colby, largely credited with its conceptual paternity. The interview was conducted by our colleague Octavian Manea and published by GlobalFocus Center in 2019 on its editorial platform Eastern Focus.

Interview with Elbridge Colby, Director of the Defense Program at the Center for a New American Security. He was Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Strategy and Force Development from 2017 to 2018, during which time he served as the lead official in the development of the 2018 National Defense Strategy (NDS) and the DOD’s principal representative in the development of the 2017 National Security Strategy (NSS).
