On this week’s Defense & Aerospace Report Washington Roundtable, Dr. Patrick Cronin of the Hudson Institute think tank, Michael Herson of American Defense International, former Pentagon Europe chief Jim Townsend of the Center for a New American Security, and former Pentagon Comptroller Dr. Dov Zakheim join host Vago Muradian to discuss Senate’s appropriations figures and version of the National Defense Authorization Act; more House nonsense, calls for President Biden to step aside in the wake of his poor debate performance that raised questions about his fitness for office; a highly successful 75th anniversary NATO summit during which allies increased support for Ukraine, labeled China “the decisive enabler” for Russia’s war on Ukraine, brought together European and Indo-Pacific leaders, adopted a new industrial strategy to increase weapons production and defense cooperation, and Washington’s plan to return long-range strike missiles to Germany starting in 2026; Iran’s new president; and glimmers of hope for a deal that will end fighting in Gaza.
