Selon le général Lecointre, en 2030, les « tensions seront encore plus fortes qu'aujourd'hui avec des risques de dérapages supérieurs ». Il anticipe « une réorganisation de l'ordre du monde, structurée autour de la compétition entre les États-Unis et la Chine ». Dans cette compétition, « la France et les Européens doivent représenter une voie d'équilibre en s'appuyant sur des partenaires stratégiques ». Pour le général, « le prochain pas en avant de l'Europe passera par la défense ». Parmi les espaces de confrontation, le général François Lecointre cite notamment l'espace : « nos activités militaires ne peuvent pas se passer de l'espace pour les communications, l'observation ou le positionnement. Un enjeu majeur consistera à préserver notre liberté de manœuvre dans l'espace face aux développements chez certaines puissances, en particulier la Chine et la Russie, de capacités de perturbation, d'entrave voire de destruction de moyens spatiaux ».
