美国国防部长威廉·佩里认为,如果美国必须减缩军队的规模,就不得不放弃政府以前提出的“能同时打赢两场主要局部战争”的战略。佩里最近指出:“如果我们必须在军事结构上进行大幅度的削减,就应首先考虑是否还要支持这样一个战略。”同时,佩里还强调,应当把应战准备工作放在最优先的位置加以考虑。 U.S. Defense Secretary William Perry believes that if the United States had to reduce the size of its military forces, it would have to abandon its previous strategy of “winning two major local wars simultaneously.” Perry recently pointed out: “If we have to make substantial reductions in the military structure, we should first consider whether we should support such a strategy.” Meanwhile, Perry also stressed that the preparatory work should be prepared for the highest priority Consider it.
