SUBJECT: President's National Security Strategy Report
The President has approved and transmitted to Congress the
attached National Security Strategy Report, 1988. The amended
National Security Act of 1947 requires this report to be
submitted annually with the Budget. However, we have continued
our original schedule to provide the report to Congress and
the public prior to the opening of the Second Session of this
Congress when the INF Treaty and associated strategic issues
will be immediately considered.
The 1988 report provides an unclassified, official statement of
the nation's broad national security strategy, the currently
approved policies for the use of the various elements of national
power, and specific strategies for each major region of the
world. It concludes with the President's assessment of the
resources provided by Congress to execute the strategy, and
recommendations for building a bipartisan consensus on these
issues. i am confident your departments and agencies will find
it useful in preparing your own communications to Congress and
interested public groups.
After this initial distribution, the report will be available
through the Superintendent of Documents, Stock Number
040-000-00522-6.
Paul Schott Stevens
Executive Secretary
