3 PT Armed Forces Reality Na definição da forma como desejamos utilizar os recursos, importa considerar as nossas principais vulnerabilidades: os desequilíbrios económicofinanceiros e os níveis de competitividade da economia; o envelhecimento da população; a dependência energética e alimentar; as insuficiências do sistema de justiça e os constrangimentos de ordenamento do território. O potencial estratégico nacional será sempre função dos recursos que a Nação pode disponibilizar. Porém, o seu valor real resulta, sobretudo, da forma racional e inteligente como esses recursos forem utilizados na edificação de uma capacidade nacional de atuação efetiva e, principalmente, da vontade coletiva que nos anima como portugueses de querer continuar a construir um futuro comum.
