The Need For Strength Abroad
from The Stephen Mansfield Podcast
Russia’s behavior is a result of the United States’ weakness at certain critical moments. (For a recent example: our failure to support the Kurds, 93% of whom voted in favor of a referendum on independence.) Stephen believes that if the U.S. doesn’t change its diplomatic tone, Russia is going to gain alliances and territories in the Middle East that it’s wanted for generations. It’s time to take a stand.
