Features: In the new international political environment, China also needs to further deepen and comprehensively understand and study the United States. One of the purposes of this interview collection is to introduce the attitudes, viewpoints, and ways of thinking of some famous American scholars on security issues to a broad middle school audience. Although the views of the American scholars sometimes differ and even contradict each other, they are very beneficial for us to conduct in-depth research on the United States' new government's globalization and regional security strategies, defense policies, and policies toward China. From the developments so far, although the uncertainties in the future world have greatly increased, it is still difficult to conclude that this event will fundamentally impact the basic contradictions and strategic landscape of the world, causing a fundamental reversal of the trend of peace and development. Therefore, the basic viewpoints and perspectives reflected in this interview still have very important reference value. To truly and objectively reflect the original thoughts of the interviewees and ensure the accuracy and completeness of the content, this interview collection is entirely compiled and translated based on English audio recordings. All recorded materials have been reviewed or authorized for compilation by the author. It should be particularly noted that due to the limitations of the interview format and time, the author did not have the opportunity to discuss the views of the interviewees, but this does not mean agreeing with their views.
