Donald Trump: peacemaker or warmonger? Why the US must withdraw from the Middle East
Jennifer Kavanaugh, director of military analysis at Defense Priorities and former senior political scientist at the RAND Corporation. She discusses why the US-European plan to supply Ukraine with weaponry won’t make a difference on the battlefield and how Donald Trump has made it harder for himself to walk away from the Ukraine proxy war, Trump’s use of tariffs and his threats of secondary tariffs on Russia, the frustration over Trump letting go of campaign promises to pursue a more restrained US foreign policy, whether Trump would actually bomb Russia if peace talks fail over Ukraine, why Trump’s strike on Iran makes nuclear proliferation more likely across the global south, Vladimir Putin’s restraint against NATO amid the proxy war in Ukraine, Europe’s efforts to tie the US military down in Europe, why the US must withdraw from the Middle East, and much more.
