- Clinton’s main concern is that this strategic pivot could potentially benefit global powers like China and Russia, strengthening their influence.
- In a rare moment of agreement, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo aligns with Clinton, also rejecting the Pentagon’s approach.
- The Pentagon’s strategy includes redefining spheres of influence, which both Clinton and Pompeo oppose, fearing it could weaken the U.S.’s international standing.
