Pete Hegseth delivers culture-war speech stirring debate
Original: Hegseth gives culture-war speech
US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth has given a speech framing the military around culture-war themes, drawing sharp reactions across the political spectrum. Critics say the remarks politicise the armed forces and signal a shift in Pentagon priorities, while supporters view the message as a defense of traditional values in military institutions. The speech is fueling fresh debate over the role of politics in the military leadership.
Why now: The defence secretary's openly partisan framing of military culture is controversial and politically charged.
