President Donald Trump's first "National Security Strategy" has pilloried China and Russia as "revisionist powers" bent on rolling back American interests and values, according to the hard-hitting text released Monday.
"China and Russia want to shape a world antithetical to US values and interests," the strategy document states, using remarkably biting language.
"China seeks to displace the United States in the Indo-Pacific region, expand the reaches of its state-driven economic model, and reorder the region in its favor," according to the text.
"Russia seeks to restore its great power status and establish spheres of influence near its borders."
