American Foreign Policy Under Trump 2.0
I'm huge in India now. Huge, I say!
Longtime readers of Drezner’s World might be wondering why there is a photo of the Taj Mahal in a newsletter about American foreign policy under Donald Trump’s second term.
The hard-working staff here at Drezner’s World understands and empathizes with your confusion. The answer is simple: Sreeram Chaulia, Professor and Dean of the Jindal School of International Affairs and the Director General of the Jindal India Institute, interviewed me for his weekly television show Indian Diplomacy on the DDIndia network. I have been told by Indians that I trust that this is a big deal. We’ll see!
The full interview is below — see if you can spot the Thucydides callout! Think of it as a distillation of the points I have been making in Foreign Affairs, Foreign Policy, and here at Drezner’s World — plus a few improvised riffs.
Enjoy!
Sorry -- the bad news is that the photo in your newsletter is not of the Taj Mahal. The good news is that it is another monument in India but one built by the British rather than the Mughals -- it's the Victoria Memorial in Kolkata
