National Security Strategy Report - February 1995
President Clinton transmitted the 1995 National Security Strategy Report to Congress in February 1995.
The report, entitled "A National Security Strategy of Engagement and Enlargement," outlined the President's vision for America's role in the world and discussed the Administration's international priorities.
This report, submitted in accordance with Section 603 of the Goldwater-Nichols Defense Department Reorganization Act of 1986, elaborates a national security strategy that is tailored for this new era and builds upon America's unmatched strengths. Focusing on new threats and new opportunities, its central goals are:
- To sustain US security with military forces that are ready to fight.
- To bolster America's economic revitalization.
- To promote democracy abroad.
The Administration argues that the reports is premised on a belief that the line between US domestic and foreign policies is disappearing - that it must revitalize its economy if it were to sustain its military forces, foreign initiatives and global influence, and that the US must engage actively abroad.
