Here's my try:
The Final Report of the Congressional Commission on the Strategic Posture of the United States discusses the militarily troubling and increasingly aggressive behaviors of Russia and China over the past decade that led Congress to direct a review of the strategic posture of the United States. The report highlights the challenging global environment where the US faces two nuclear peer adversaries, Russia and China, each with ambitions to change the international status quo by force if necessary. While the risk of major nuclear conflict remains low, the risk of military conflict with either or both Russia and China has grown, and with it the risk of nuclear use, possibly against the US homeland.
The Commission recommends America’s elected officials to take action by:
1. Developing a strategy and identifying associated strategic posture changes, including defenses, sufficient to address emerging and disruptive technologies, such as AI, quantum, and genetically engineered or other novel biological weapons, on the future battlefield;
2. Investing in workforce development, infrastructure modernization, and deterrence posture to maintain U.S. military superiority over Russia and China;
3. Strengthening alliances and partnerships with key regional powers, such as Japan, South Korea, India, and Australia, to counterbalance Russian and Chinese influence and aggression;
4. Enhancing cybersecurity and resilience to protect critical infrastructure from potential attacks by Russia and China;
5. Improving intelligence collection and analysis capabilities to better understand the intentions and actions of Russia and China;
6. Developing a comprehensive strategy for space that addresses threats to U.S. space assets and ensures access to space for national security purposes;
7. Investing in research and development to maintain technological superiority over Russia and China in key areas such as hypersonics, directed energy weapons, and advanced computing;
8. Strengthening deterrence posture through the development and deployment of new military capabilities, including conventional prompt global strike systems, low-yield nuclear weapons, and advanced missile defense systems;
9. Enhancing civilian control of the military by strengthening congressional oversight and accountability mechanisms for the use of force;
10. Addressing the root causes of conflict with Russia and China, including territorial disputes, economic competition, and ideological differences, through diplomacy, dialogue, and confidence-building measures.
