Great to see the new Black Swan by Tom Corben featured in Breaking Defense. 'America, Japan and Australia know their national security establishments must work more closely together, as reflected by a number of signed agreements and commitments. But, a pair of independent studies have both concluded, the countries still have significant work to do on training and practicing how to fight together.The two reports focus on different bilateral angles. The first, from the University of Western Australia [PDF], is focused on Japan and Australia’s relationship. The second, from the Carnegie Foundation, if focused on Australia and Washington. But taken together, they have clear overlaps and paint a picture of where trilateral cooperation may be going between the three Pacific partners.' https://lnkd.in/gAwpiawZ

I recently had the pleasure to speak at the South American Defense Conference in Santiago, Chile. An important forum co-hosted by Chile and U.S. Southern Command that brought together our close and highly valuable partner Chiefs of Defense from 10 South American Nations, as well as representatives from North America, Europe, the Inter-American Defense Board, and our partner programs operating in South America, Central America, and the Caribbean. Across the Americas and beyond, faith in democratic institutions is being tested. Tested by authoritarian regimes through the use of advanced technology to deepen corruption, spread disinformation, perpetrate human rights abuses, and threaten the sovereignty and territorial integrity of nations. We must constantly look towards the future to anticipate and counter emerging security challenges that threaten what so many have sacrificed so much to build. And we must also look to the future to ensure our actions today build the prosperity of tomorrow…as we work to harness advancing technologies…and shape emerging domains. Collectively we have fought and sacrificed to bring democracy to our people. Working together, our nations will continue building a future rooted in the democratic principles gifted by those who came before us…so those that come after us may live in peace and prosperity. BECAUSE WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER.

This is a reallistic assessment of the impact of operational Ukrainian F-16s in the near term. It will take years to get F-16 logistics/operations to the point where these systems can meaningfully hurt the Russians. That said, it’s a start.
"You'd have to separate symbolism from the actual impact on the battlefield - which will be useful but modest, particularly in the beginning," said Mark Cancian, senior adviser with the International Security Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).

Strategic Security, Diplomacy & International Relations Leader | Expertise in Security Cooperation, Foreign Military Sales, & Risk Assessment | TS/SCI Cleared
📚 I recently completed reading "Exporting Security" by Derek S. Reveron, and it's a must-read! This book dives deep into how the U.S. is shifting its military approach from force to partnership. It's packed with insights on modern foreign policy and the role of the military in global security. Definitely worth picking up if you're into international relations or just curious about how global security strategies are evolving!

The contemporary world is witnessing subtle and undeclared wars between contesting states being fought without traditional military engagements. This clandestine warfare blurs the distinction between peace and war. In this vein, ‘The Weaponisation of Everything: A Field Guide to the New Way of War,’ by Mark Galeotti provides a penetrative examination of contemporary warfare dynamics, which he aptly terms as ‘undeclared shadow wars of the twenty-first century.’ The book leaves a crucial impression that war is inevitable in the future. However, one key concern is how middle-power or small countries should normalise this emerging global challenge. For further insights about the book, check my book review published in 'Stratheia' https://lnkd.in/dPtACB5Y

Dean Emeritus of the Fletcher School, Adm. James Stavridis outlines the consequences we could expect to see from a potential war between the U.S. and China. He concludes that the most obvious path is to avoid this war at all costs, but by recognizing these contingencies of war we can reinforce deterrence and our alliance systems.

Director of Editorial and Media Relations for the University of Nebraska at Omaha 🤘 More coffee, please ☕️
Another example of the role the University of Nebraska at Omaha plays on the global stage: The Nebraska Deterrence Lab (NDL) at UNO partnered with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) to help run a series of space deterrence wargames this summer. As part of the team of nine NATO nations, the NDL assisted in developing and testing a deterrence framework that would anticipate and address future security challenges in space 🛰️🚀 Hats off to Michelle Black and Deanna House for leading the charge and getting UNO students involved in this work! https://lnkd.in/ebZPKmra

The article below aligns with my thoughts and rationale for me directing a Reconstitution OPT during #AvengerTriad24 to explore the impact of protracted conflict and attrition during #LargeScaleCombatOperations.
National Defense University Professor George Topic and I published "On Protracted War: The Challenge of Sustained Large-Scale Combat Operations" with the Modern War Institute at West Point. This article is the basis for talks I've given recently at Harvard's Belfer Center and at the University of Denver - Josef Korbel School of International Studies. Our thesis: "The resources required to manage multiple conflicts, especially protracted wars—and the coordination challenges involved in doing so—could overextend the capabilities of the United States and its allies." https://lnkd.in/eibN7_FV
