Council on Foreign Relations 64d ago

“We’re in a moment of superpower suicide,” says CFR democracy expert Timothy Snyder. “We are choosing to be far less powerful than we could be. We are choosing that, right? And that’s the element of choice in a suicide. And then there’s the substance of what we’re doing, which is that in domain after domain—long term, short term, ethical, strategic—we are cutting ourselves off. . . . We’re doing it in education. We’re doing it in research. We’re doing it in the way we’re fighting war. We’re doing it in economics.” Subscribe to our channel: https://goo.gl/WCYsH7 This work represents the views and opinions solely of the author.
