Can the U.S. afford to shift its focus to China while Russia remains a threat?

Following the GNSI Summit on the Russian-Ukraine War, experts break down why abandoning Europe could be a serious mistake—and how Russian and Chinese aggression are more connected than you think. Maintaining a strong military presence in Europe isn’t just about defending allies—it’s about global stability.

The conversation explores why the U.S. must strike a balance between investing in legacy military systems and rapidly adopting new technologies like drones to stay ahead of emerging threats. The key to success? Proactive deterrence. Preventing conflicts before they start is more effective—and less costly—than responding after the damage is done.

Don’t miss this insightful deep dive into the future of U.S. defense strategy and why global power dynamics are more intertwined than ever. Subscribe to the “At the Boundary” Podcast to stay up to date on global policy!

At the Boundary from the Global and National Security Institute at the University of South Florida, features global and national security issues we’ve found to be insightful, intriguing, fascinating, maybe controversial, but overall just worth talking about.
A "boundary" is a place, either literal or figurative, where two forces exist in close proximity to each other. Sometimes that boundary is in a state of harmony. More often than not, that boundary has a bit of chaos baked in. The Global and National Security Institute will live on the boundary of security policy and technology and that's where this podcast will focus.
The mission of GNSI is to provide actionable solutions to 21st-century security challenges for decision-makers at the local, state, national and global levels. We hope you enjoy At the Boundary.
