Austin advocated using the advantages of technology to complement global military operations so that military decisions are “understood faster, decided more decisively and acted upon more quickly. He said, “The way we fight the next battle is very different from what we’ve done in the past.
Austin did not name rivals Russia or China. However, Austin said Washington is resetting the Pentagon’s mission priorities after President Joe Biden called for the unconditional withdrawal of U.S. troops in Afghanistan, the longest-running U.S. war in the country.
Austin added that his more than 20 years of military service have been spent carrying out old-fashioned war orders.
Austin’s comments did not propose a special operation, nor predict a particular conflict, a commentary to Reuters said Austin seems to be outlining the Biden administration’s military objectives during the term, but relatively vague. We cannot predict the future,” he said, “so we need a mix of technology, operational concepts and military capabilities. Austin said, “All of these are woven together to form a network that is credible, flexible and difficult to restrain, so that the enemy does not move easily.
Austin also said that conflict avoidance requires “creating your own advantage and creating a dilemma for your adversary. For example, the U.S. military can use cyber warfare to intervene in a maritime security incident hundreds of miles away.
As for the Indo-Pacific commander, Aquilino said in his speech that “the Indo-Pacific region is the most important region for the future of the United States, with the most significant security challenges, and is a priority for the United States to focus on the war zone. Aquilino said he will strengthen relations with allies and partners, deter conflicts of power, and when ordered, “U.S. Indo-Pacific Command will be able to immediately fight and win,” and if necessary, to stand up to ensure that the Indo-Pacific region is free and open.
He also pointed out that for more than 70 years, the United States and allies of the partnership, all countries have been able to prosper, based on the rule of law from the international order, large and small countries can peacefully resolve disputes and differences, to maintain regional stability. However, Aquilino believes that such an environment is being challenged.
In his speech, Aquilino thanked by name Taiwan’s Navy Commander Liu Chi-bin, South Korea’s Joint Staff Headquarters Joint Chief of Staff Yuan In-chul, Japan’s Self-Defense Force Chief of Staff Yamazaki Koji, Australia (Australia) Navy Commander Noonan (Michael Noonan) multi-national military senior representatives.
