American roles .. Change

Issued by Washington these days messages about new directions in U.S. defense strategy. Apparently some of these messages in my ambivalent while another seems some integrated and logical. The Obama administration had prepared a toast foreign and defense policy in the United States, Europe and Asia to receive the shift is perhaps one of the most important shifts taken by the political leadership of America since the establishment of NATO in the aftermath of the Second World War. I do not think that the word «rotated» launched by some experts on this sudden shift in U.S. strategy used frequently in books and documents and the Pentagon in previous years, came to use this time to reflect well on the direction of the forces to transfer the bulk of the attention the military for America abroad European continent to the Pacific and East Asia. I also do not mention that for decades arose uproar in Europe because of changes in the strategic direction of the American of Kaldjh triggered by this transformation,

It came the idea of transferring the strategic focus of the Atlantic to the Pacific in the worst conditions since the circumstances surrounding the establishment of the Berlin Wall, which is also among the worst in the history of economic crises in the capitalist world. However, the right to defenders project move the focus in the U.S. strategy to say that, despite the bad economic and social conditions in Europe, and despite the state of anxiety and severe tension that prevails southern European countries and threaten domestic stability, but Europe remains safe militarily not in danger of external direct, such as threats of Middle in the cold war years. As well as the fact remains whiter than a European continent did not enjoy during the hundreds of years long period of peace between the current epoch where diameters do not represent any threat to the European power other European country.

 Calm, peace and security in Europe offset a regional soaring bilateral conflicts between East Asian countries, and the rise of dangerous nationalist sentiments in many countries in the continent, and the mismatch between rapidly advancing countries and countries progressing gradually and slow and relapsed countries where the development process. Here embodies «Chinese worker» fundamental question about the future of peace and security in Asia, a question that reflects the reality of the situation in the balance of power within the institutions of the region and the arms race between China and Japan and speeds varying which jump by China economically, socially and in terms of domestic policy and last but not least put interdependence between the United States and China.

 I'd particularly in this stage is reflected in the 'Chinese factor' in the system of relations within ASEAN, which comprises ten countries, with multiple and deepened doubts about China's ambitions and intentions in the area of South and Southeast Asia. I noticed particularly in recent times, what was discussed at the summit meeting held in Phnom Penh to group countries, when subjected Government Cambodia, the host State and President of the Conference, the will of the Chinese Vahbtt endeavor Vietnam and the Philippines to raise issues islands disputed South China Sea. There is increasing concern within the group transfer the presidency to Brunei, small state, which is inhabited by about half a million people, which does not have the will to stand against the Chinese giant, and then transferred the presidency to Myanmar, the state which shares borders are very sensitive with China, and the weaker and poorer at all. This means that regional conditions in the framework of ASEAN are more likely to be dominated by China in the region and policies over the next two years at least.

On the other hand, continued rising tension between China and Japan because of the dispute over the ownership of a group of islands located in the East China Sea. The problem is not in and ownership of the islands, but in the exploitation of the parties for inciting nationalism which two famous throughout history and left an enormous legacy of strained relations and destructive wars and massacres. The interesting development is the leaking information about the intention of the Japanese government fundamental changes in Japan's constitution, so that it is Japan's right to keep a large army. Known that Japan's constitution, which established by the United States in the wake of World War II, as it did with Germany and also do since then with small countries through bilateral agreements and three such agreements attached to conciliate the Egyptian-Israeli, this Constitution imposes on Japan not to have troops land, sea and air and other combat capabilities, and that only symbolic troop named self-defense forces.

Many people may not know, outside elites familiar with Japan's defenses, successive Japanese governments did not respect this text, and U.S. officials acknowledge that the Japanese military and most advanced technology to the limits can withstand any Chinese attack waged suddenly on the disputed islands. But that any U.S. defense plan in East Asia must take into account the ability of Japanese militarism. Japan has a problem with North Korea because of the insistence strange in Pyongyang on its nuclear weapons development and ballistic missile long-term, and will not think about Japan in a preemptive strike to the locations of these weapons before they can rest assured that China would not respond in defense of North Korea ally for more than half a century.

Some pictures of the future of the U.S. role is clearer than others. I imagine that the image of role in Latin America and the image of the role in the Pacific and East and Southeast Asia are the clearest ever followed a picture role in Europe, which may enter upon substantial modifications, while I took a picture Middle East unclear slowly to reveal preparations underway to break links with other countries and streams in the region caused heavy losses incurred in the U.S. economy and serious errors committed by the U.S. military and diplomatic huge bets lost America.
