America’s political leadership must be clear about the purpose of every conflict that puts our people, our security, and our resources at risk.

What outcomes are we trying to achieve?

What conditions would tell us the mission has succeeded?

Who will verify those conditions?

These are practical questions. In the Middle East, military action must serve a defined political objective along with a path to ending the fighting. In Europe, every American commitment should be measured against a realistic prospect for peace. We should know what we are asking our allies to do, what negotiations are meant to accomplish, and what would allow the United States to reduce its involvement responsibly.

A strike can destroy a target. Another shipment can sustain a fight. Neither, by itself, tells us how a war ends. If circumstances change or the objective proves unreachable, we must have the discipline to reassess, and if necessary, change our course.

On October 14th, join me in Washington, D.C. for the Gold Institute’s Second Annual Indo-Pacific Summit.

We are bringing together ambassadors, government officials, national security experts, and business leaders for an important discussion about the future of the U.S.–Korea alliance and the security of the Indo-Pacific.

The alliance between our two nations was forged through tremendous sacrifice. This summit is an opportunity to remember our history while having the serious conversations necessary to strengthen this relationship for the future.

Get out and vote for Patriots and conservatives who want America to remain strong, prosperous and free.

As Board Chairman of the Gold Institute for International Strategy, I am proud to share this important publication examining the future of the Korea-U.S. alliance and the opportunities it presents for both nations.

The Korea-U.S. alliance is more than a security partnership. It is an economic and strategic relationship with a growing footprint right here in the United States.

Strong alliances should produce tangible benefits for both nations: greater security, stronger economies, expanded investment, American jobs, and new opportunities for the men and women who served to protect our shared interests.

I encourage you to read “Make Korea-US Alliance Great Again” and consider ...

What does it mean and what does it take to be an American?
