n February, the Biden administration launched a review of the US military’s global presence. That review, slated for completion by mid-2021, comes as the administration shifts its imperial focus from the Middle East to Asia, where, according to the German press, the Pentagon plans to invest $27 billion to station medium-range missiles off China.
Join us for a discussion of strategic base closure demands and resistance to US militarization in the South China Sea.
