Former Trump national security adviser details potential game plan to divide ‘axis of evil’

Former Trump national security adviser details potential game plan to divide ‘axis of evil’

Former Trump administration national security adviser Robert O’Brien on Sunday laid out a potential game plan to divide the so-called ‘axis of evil’ as relations continue to grow between Russia, China, North Korea and Iran.

O’Brien appeared on CBS’ ‘Face the Nation’ and remarked that the Biden administration’s ‘lack of American leadership’ has allowed this new alliance to flourish.

‘We haven’t seen peace or strength,’ O’Brien said of America’s role on the world stage under Biden.

When asked how former President Trump would drive a wedge between the axis of evil after Russian President Vladimir Putin was seen driving with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in North Korea last week, O’Brien said the first thing the U.S. can do is increase domestic energy production.

‘These countries are reliant on Russian energy to run their economies,’ he said. ‘We need to increase our energy production.’

The former Trump official said Biden diminished American energy production after taking office and canceling the Keystone XL pipeline in the U.S., while allowing Putin to open the Nord Stream Two pipeline that runs from Russia to Germany.

Alongside increasing U.S. energy production, O’Brien called for sanctions on the Russian Federation Central Bank, as well as cutting back on Russian oil sales. Regarding Tehran, O’Brien said the U.S. and its allies ‘need to put maximum pressure back on the Iranians.’

In addition to those steps, O’Brien said that rebuilding the U.S. military and Navy, and getting ‘our shipyards producing ships again,’ would help assert ‘peace through strength.’

‘Those are the things that’ll divide the alliance, this axis of evil,’ O’Brien said.

After failing to stop Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, O’Brien said the U.S. must take a strong posture in Asia to deter China from a similar invasion of Taiwan. He said moving U.S. Marines out of Germany and other garrisons in Europe to Guam, Hawaii, the Philippines and Australia would act as a strong message to China not to invade.

‘The key is to deter war, not to fight and win a war, which we would need to do if it happens,’ O’Brien said. ‘Strength will deter the Chinese from invading. It’s not talk. It’s how they see our force posture.’
