Securing the U.S. Industrial Base: Economic Security is a Matter of 21st Century National Security. This was the topic of a joint panel discussion by The American Legion’s Veterans Education & Employment Commission and the National Security Commission March 1 during the Legion’s annual Washington Conference, held virtually this year due to the pandemic.
Moderator John Berry, a former U.S. Ambassador to Australia and the current president of The American & Australia Association, started the discussion by asking panelists for their thoughts on what actions can be taken to strengthen national security. In relation to this, he mentioned two executive orders that President Biden signed on buying American products and securing America s supply chain; both executive orders call for a 100-day study and a one-year review for all agencies to build a resilience of U.S. supply chains that will protect the United States from facing shortages of critical products.

There is no denying that the decade-long success in poverty reduction in Bangladesh is under threat.
There are a few reasons behind the sudden and unprecedented rise in poverty in Bangladesh. First, the lockdown during March-May 2020 and the disruption of economic activities since the onset of Covid-19 resulted in unmatched havoc in the economy. This havoc created a large labour market disruption as many people either lost their jobs or earned less. Although the lockdown has been discontinued since June 2020, economic activities are yet to return to normalcy.
