How to deal with China: my article in the Harvard International Review

We need leadership at home AND abroad

Friend, "We've got to keep in mind that the crisis in Syria is still ongoing... we had Iran, we had Turkey and we had Russia in Geneva deciding on the future of Syria and we were not at the table." That was what I told Neil Cavuto on Fox News in my interview, speaking on the need to have a forei…
