That doesn't strike me as postmodern at all. It strikes me as classical realpolitik

I also think it could be seen as realpolitik. I depends on how strongly you take "we create our own reality". Even Postmodernism has a kind of 'classical' version that emerges historically from Hegel, Kierkegaard, Marx and Nietzsche.
