General John E. Hyten

Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff

**This event will premiere on this page at 12:00 p.m. EDT, Wednesday, August 12.**

Join Hudson Institute for a discussion with Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General John E. Hyten on the Department of Defense's progress in implementing the National Defense Strategy and remaining challenges. Hudson Senior Fellow Rebeccah L. Heinrichs will moderate the discussion.

Amid an ongoing pandemic, the United States is faced with a broad ranges of security challenges. Responding to the long-term threat posed by China and Russia continues to be the greatest animating force of U.S. defense policy. However, the U.S. faces other serious threats from terrorist groups and rogue states like North Korea and Iran.

General Hyten will describe how the National Defense Strategy is guiding major power competition and working to mitigate and defeat lesser threats.

How has the strategy affected force size, strategy, and deployments? What role do alliances play in achieving the priorities laid out in the national defense strategy? Are we moving at the right speed to develop and produce at scale the kinds of weapon systems we need?

General Hyten will answer these and other questions as he outlines accomplishments and the remaining work ahead.
