FORT DRUM, Etat de New York, 14 août (Reuters) - Donald Trump a signé lundi un texte qui alloue un budget de 716 milliards de dollars (627 milliards d'euros) aux dépenses militaires américaines pour le prochain exercice fiscal.

"Cela représente une augmentation de 50 milliards de dollars par rapport à 2018".

Le président américain avait déjà annoncé le 18 juin dernier son projet de "force armée de l'espace" alors que 250.000 systèmes militaires américains sont dépendants du système de localisation par satellites.

Cette loi de financement "donnera aux militaires américains la puissance de feu dont ils ont besoin pour gagner n'importe quel conflit rapidement et de façon décisive", a indiqué le président américain au cours d'une cérémonie de signature sur la base militaire de Fort Drum, dans l'État de New York. La rallonge du budget de l'armée américaine pour l'année 2019 devrait particulièrement profiter à la nouvelle et sixième branche du Pentagone qui est la force de l'espace. "L'espace est devenu un terrain de combat et la simple présence américaine dans l'espace ne suffit pas, il faut une domination américaine dans l'espace ". Une Force de l'espace permettra aux États-Unis de "rattraper" leurs adversaires, qui ont déjà "commencé à armer l'espace", a-t-il indiqué.

Pour le The Washington Post, ce budget de 716 milliards de dollars [environ 628 milliards d'euros] reflète bien les "priorités stratégiques de l'administration Trump en matière de sécurité nationale", notamment le fait que les forces armées américaines doivent se préparer à "une ère de compétition entre grandes puissances avec la Chine et la Russie".

"Nous sommes les plus puissants". Nous sommes les mieux financés. Nous sommes les plus nombreux. "Nous sommes les plus malins", a-t-il avancé.
