In a leaked email, Ben Mermel, who has been Abughazaleh’s National Security Adviser since July 2025, wrote to a Washington-based "progressive" foreign policy activist that
Abughazaleh believes "the world is better off when America takes a leading role" and that the U.S. has "an obligation to support pro-democracy movements around the world, from Iran to Venezuela." He added that "Kat wholly supports the National Endowment for Democracy, as well as its affiliated organizations (NDI, IRI, and the AFL-CIO’s Solidarity Center)," The DC-based activist had written to Mermel saying he had noticed unusually hawkish language on the campaign website related to Ukraine and Taiwan and was looking for clarification.
In his response, Mermel said that on Taiwan she would amend the Taiwan Relations Act by "dropping our strategic ambiguity" and make clear the U.S. would counter Chinese aggression "with force," arguing the region now requires "a firmer hand."
On Ukraine, Mermel wrote she would "hold the line," support "funding the Ukrainian war effort to the hilt," back long-range strikes on Russian strategic targets, deploy additional U.S. "air, naval, and ground assets" to NATO’s front line, and that "She supports the seizure and redistribution of Russian assets in Europe and the United States, for the purpose of financing the war effort.[1]
