Iran, North Korea, Syria, Russia, China: Taking Stock of the Nations that Want to Give America a Bad Day
Steve Clemons will discuss the high fragility in global
affairs today and how the U.S.-centric global order is
fading and giving way to ad hoc, temporary
arrangements. Old friends and allies like France,
Germany, Canada and the U.K. have been painted as
national-security-threatening economic rivals while,
simultaneously, the U.S. President holds out a
potential White House invitation to North Korea’s
Kim Jong Un and tweets that China’s ZTE needs to be
saved to preserve Chinese jobs. At a minimum, the
old lines in global affairs are blurred and simmering.
U.S. allies are worried America won't be with them on
their dark days and America's real rivals are moving
their agendas forward. Clemons, in an exchange with
his audience, will map current trends and what the
upsides and downsides are for U.S. foreign policy in
the coming years.
