After the American Empire w/ Trita Parsi | The Time of Monsters with Jeet Heer
Published 6 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Donald Trump claims he wants to be the peace president and has even lobbied for a Nobel
Peace Prize. But his foreign policy has been wildly contradictory. While the United States is
clearly retrenching from many parts of the world, violence against hemispheric neighbors is
increasing. I talked to Trita Parsi, co-founder and executive vice president of the Quincy
Institute for Responsible Statecraft, for a wide-ranging discussion on why American hegemony
is declining but also why the push for retrenchment hasn’t gone far enough.
