This alliance, however, is focused on addressing security policy issues,&#8221; German Foreign Minister Wadephul said on Friday. <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">&#8220;I believe questions of freedom of expression or the organisation of our free societies do not belong [in the strategy], in any case at least when it comes to Germany,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">But the European Council on Foreign Relations, a think tank, claimed that the document &#8220;places itself to the right of the extreme right.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">&#8220;Its language that one otherwise only finds coming out of some bizarre minds of the Kremlin,&#8221; the ECFR co-chair and former Swedish Prime Minister Carl Bildt wrote on social media. <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">The US has been growing closer to the far-right AfD party in Germany, which has been classified as extreme right by German intelligence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">Promoting an &#8220;America First&#8221; message, the strategy says the US intends to target alleged drug-trafficking boats in the Caribbean Sea and the eastern Pacific Ocean, considering possible military action in Venezuela.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">The US also calls on an increased defence spending from Japan, South Korea, Australia and Taiwan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">Democrats in Congress warned that the document could shatter US foreign relations. <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">Representative Jason Crow of Colorado, who sits on House committees overseeing intelligence and the armed forces, called the strategy &#8220;catastrophic to America&#8217;s standing in the world&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">New York Representative Gregory Meeks said it &#8220;discards decades of value-based, US leadership.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Africa tv video display -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3579572842\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\">\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n#Security #Strategy #aligns #Russias #vision #Moscow<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russia has welcomed Donald Trump&#8217;s new US National Security Strategy, calling it &#8220;largely consistent&#8221; with Moscow&#8217;s vision.
