I had another meaningful exchange with Minister Giang as we continue to deepen defense cooperation.
We are committed to accounting for those still missing, united in honoring the fallen, and steadfast in recognizing the families whose loved ones never returned.

Productive meeting with counterparts from Australia, Japan, and the Philippines. Deterrence is built on real capability and ready partnerships.
We are moving beyond words to practical cooperation along the First Island Chain—bolstering readiness to ensure peace through strength.

.@SECWAR “Earlier this year, at the Shangri-La Dialogue, I described a vision on behalf of President Trump of a more stable, secure, and prosperous Pacific.
It’s a vision based on STRENGTH—built not on wishful thinking, but on the backs of strong, self-reliant nations.
Nations capable of defending their own sovereignty and contributing to a favorable balance of power that benefits us all.
The approach we are taking can be described as strong, quiet, and clear.”

.@SECWAR “Strengthen maritime domain awareness, improving interoperability and advancing cooperation among our navies—THESE ARE NOT SYMBOLIC THINGS.
THEY ARE CONCRETE DEMONSTRATIONS OF WHAT SERIOUS PARTNERS DO.”

Great meeting with ROK Minister of National Defense Kang at ADMM-Plus.
The U.S.-ROK Alliance is built on peace through strength—ready forces, decisive capability, and combined lethality that deters aggression.
America stands with allies that are serious about their own defense.

It was a pleasure to meet with Australian Deputy Prime Minister Marles.
Together, we are optimizing the Alliance to strengthen deterrence and deliver results.

I met with Japan’s Minister of Defense Shinjirō Koizumi @shinjirokoiz to advance our shared vision of peace through strength.
Our strategic alignment is essential to building a credible denial defense—supported by increased investment, greater access, more realistic training, and stronger production of the munitions our forces need.
Thanks to President Trump’s historic National Guard deployments, Washington, D.C., and Memphis are SAFER THAN EVER BEFORE.

Thanks to President Trump, we are accelerating the Arsenal of Freedom and putting American industry back on top.
AMERICAN WORKERS. AMERICAN JOBS. AMERICAN MANUFACTURING.

President Donald J. Trump and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth had the conviction to call us the Department of War and say it plainly: America’s military exists to deter war through strength and, if necessary, fight and win.
The President has acted. Now Congress must finish the job and enshrine the Department of War name in law.

FORTRESS is strategic deterrence in action, ensuring our defenses are hardened, proactive, and ready.
I created FORTRESS America because we can no longer rely on two oceans to protect us. That outdated assumption no longer reflects the threats we face.
President Trump and Secretary Hegseth understand this and have already paved the way with Golden Dome and a renewed focus on the Western Hemisphere, including Greenland and Panama. All of it reflects a fundamental shift in how we defend America.
War has evolved, the threats have evolved, and our defenses must evolve with them.
