Former Prime Minister: Trump's Leadership Has Been "Quite Extraordinary"

Episode 196 (Part 1) Former Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison joins Erin Molan for a wide-ranging discussion about China’s expanding influence, the future of Taiwan, President Trump’s foreign policy and the growing threat posed by Iran. Morrison explains the real message behind China’s latest ballistic-missile test and warns that Beijing advances “piece by piece,” gradually making the unusual appear normal. He argues that Western governments must confront this strategy before China establishes dominance across the Indo-Pacific. The former prime minister also discusses his relationship with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, President Trump’s approach to Xi Jinping, America’s support for Taiwan and why sustained pressure is the only language Iran’s regime understands. Scott Morrison is the former Prime Minister of Australia and Non-Executive Vice Chairman of American Global Strategies.  CHAPTERS 00:00 Scott Morrison's Chilling Warning About China01:40 The Mistake Western Leaders Keep Making07:00 Trump, Xi Jinping & The Taiwan Question13:20 Iran, Israel & Trump's Toughest Decision16:45 Why This Fight Matters to Every DemocracySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
