Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth delivered a powerful address at the Reagan National Defense Forum on Saturday, where he sharply criticized U.S. foreign policy in the post-Cold War era. In his speech, Hegseth announced a strategic shift in military focus toward the Western Hemisphere, voicing disapproval of decisions made by previous administrations. During his approximately 40-minute speech, Hegseth covered a wide range of issues, including persistent calls for allied nations to take on more responsibility in global defense efforts.
