Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Kremlin Says Trump's New Security Strategy Aligns With Russia
Caption: Kremlin Says Trump’s New Security Strategy Aligns With Russia. The Kremlin has warmly endorsed President Donald Trump’s new U.S. National Security Strategy, calling it largely in line with Russia’s worldview. The strategy outlines “flexible realism,” revives the Monroe Doctrine, and warns Europe faces “civilizational erasure.” It also prioritizes ending the Ukraine war and restoring strategic stability with Moscow. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the policy shifts “correspond in many ways to our vision,” a rare moment of overt agreement between the two rivals. Moscow welcomed the strategy’s call to halt the idea of NATO’s endless expansion — a long-running source of tension. Peskov warned that the U.S. “deep state” may resist Trump’s approach, though critics say no such entity exists. Russia noted the shift away from labeling Moscow a direct threat, which had dominated U.S. strategies since Crimea’s annexation and the 2022 invasion of Ukraine. The strategy also sharpens U.S. focus on the Indo-Pacific and vows to boost deterrence to avoid conflict with China over Taiwan. Trump has said history shows the U.S. must prevent Russia and China from drawing closer — even as Moscow pivots toward Beijing under Western sanctions.
