most in the foreign-policy elite are prepared to wait him out competent that the pre-trump foreign-policy could be reconstituted and that the american people will go back to tolerating open-ended military missions and costly foreign entanglements. there are alternatives to trump summoned what came before. walton explores them here and he outlines the case for american foreign policy based on realism and restraint in the calls its offshore balancing. before he tells you more about the book let me tell you of it about steve. he is the robert and renee belford professor of international affairs at the harvard kennedy school. he recently taught at princeton university and the university of chicago where he mastered the collegiate division and the dean of social sciences. he is been a resident associate at the carnegie -- for peace and served as consultant for defense and naval analysis and the national defense university. presently serves on the editorial board for foreign-policy where he writes regularly in his most recent piece over the weekend. he he writes their regular is where his inter

foreign policy. he is very skeptical of nato. he's skeptical in attitude about international engagement even though he engaged. i wonder what the relationship is between the trump foreign-policy if you can state with that is. it's hard to tell. how do you assess the trump foreign-policy? >> a lot of questions. for any of the things -- >> i answer what you don't -- >> first, president trump, when he was candidate jump, he ran against liberal hegemony. there were three elements. democracy all over the world, he made it clear, you're getting that in the business of doing that. never two, purveying a open international economic order. he made it very clear that he likes tariffs and he was interested in countering this open international economic order which you heard of. ... . >> by the end of his term he admitted he felt burned by it. >> no question. and that captures that. >> with any resistance. >> so what you have now is committed to liberal hegemony and you have a handful who are up against the establishment. so the question is

foreigners to give money to u.s. political parties there was an instance during the sixteen campaign that was revealed in the d.n.c. or able to protest the e-mails that we could leaks released which showed that there were foreign foreigners living inside the us working for american companies that were donating and they weren't sure whether they should take or not looks like in the end they did so that's kind of the reverse it was an american company would a foreign national here i can answer the question unless i knew what companies they were really if they had an interest side or the other that they think that the proposed legislation of one of the other parties would help whatever their business is within the u.s. i think that would be the motive and that's why american companies give money to both parties because they want the kind of legislation that they sometimes themselves write that will reduce regulations or open a market somewhere who helps their business that's what they're after it is helping their busine

or were you just reaching the foreign-policy elite? that is one of my concerns because i have a feeling that his base doesn't really care about the foreign-policy an in e sense that we do. second, what kind of president do you think we need after to clean up the mess? >> the first one is easier to answer than the second. it is a broad representative sample of the population that includes a representative sample of pro- trump and a strong percentage and the remarkable thing, it doesn't matter whether you look at trade, allianz, it is the big difference between the trump supporters and everybody else. that is where the cleavages. now, two points to emphasize on. first and importantly, the american people were not experts on the foreign-policy. so you cannot overestimate the degree to which they know about the foreign-policy. but don't underestimate how much they understand, and they do understand very fundamental concepts in the polling for almost 50 years, 45 years demonstrates that. second thing, americans do not vote on the basis of t

known but mr trump's responses provoked strong responses from both sides of the aisle the senate foreign relations committee has asked for an inquiry that specifically looks into the crown prince's role in the merger turkey says it may push for an international inquiry its foreign minister saying there shouldn't be a cover up to maintain trade ties with riyadh hartmann go live now to our white house correspondent kimberly haokip she's in washington d.c. and kimberly so it sounds very much as a this whole process is now being driven by members of congress. it certainly is being driven by members of congress who have the power to hold the white house in check as part of the u.s. constitution the president for his part is now on his thanksgiving holiday the american holiday he has heading towards the golf course we're told but was tweeting just before he left in fact saying that the oil prices are getting lower thank you to saudi arabia let's go lower so doubling down on his posture the saudi arabia is a friend an ally of the united states even as the u.s. congress is questioning that relat

foreign minister is describing the premeditated killing of jamal khashoggi he gave a defiant interview to a u.s. based network once again back in the country's leadership and his embattled crown prince seen a u.s. politicians have called an investigation into mohammed bin summonsed role in jamal khashoggi is murder on tuesday donald trump in what's been called an outrageous statement refused to hold the saudi regime accountable citing security and economic interests he says the crown prince's role may never be fully known response has provoked strong responses from both sides of the i the senate foreign relations committee has asked for an inquiry that specifically looks into the crown prince's role in the matter turkey meanwhile says it may push for an international inquiry it's one minister says they shouldn't be a cover up to maintain trade ties with riyadh's. now saudi arabia's foreign minister has reiterated that the crown prince was not involved in the show g.'s matter we have made it very clear that the government is not involved in this case one hundred succumb puts is not impo

he sees, that we do, that foreign assistance tools are an important part of american foreign-policy. in style, he is a former member of congress like i am, so he analyzes things in a strategic political way like i do. we find it easy to communicate about challenges and opportunities we see to build bipartisan support around america's foreign-policy. >> you have spoken about the clear choice doctrine, which is the united states presents this option to countries where aid is needed. there is a clear choice if they choose china as a partner that they are mortgaging the future to that country, and there is a clear choice if they choose the .nited states as an aid partner philosophies meet you'relear choice when trying to recruit countries to take aid from the united states and not from china, but at the same time you want to get out of the aid business eventually in those countries? don't view clear choice as trying to get countries to take our aid. as choosing choice a model of self-reliance. we are trying to help countries theirhemselves, to build own capacity, to be more citizen respo

the second thing is that americans do not vote on the basis of foreign foreign-policy. it is extraordinarily rare and requires a huge political crisis for foreign-policy to play a role. if you look at the election campaign and the ads and everything else. so just because there is a sentiment publicly that says you can have an international foreign-policy. does it mean you can't win on the platform of protectionism and what donald trump has. it does mean transaction to the next question that there is at least a basis for having an international foreign-policy that shouldn't mean you are there. you don't have to become protectionist to win an election it is not going to win an election on it. advice i once got for each career. be very careful in who you pick as your predecessor. the next president of the united states could be the luckiest man or woman around. they very much hope that america will return to the kind of foreign-policy it has pursued over the last 70 years. what the right tactics were. american leadership was something that resonated around the world. you g

on foreign policy. you cannot overestimate to agree to which they know about foreign policy. they shouldn't. don't underestimate how much they understand. they do understand very fundamental content. pulling for 50 years demonstrates that. americans do not vote on the basis of foreign policy. it's extraordinarily rare and requires a huge political crisis or foreign-policy crisis to play a role. place neural. if you look at the election campaign and added everything else, you know that is the case. just because there is a sentiment publicly, that says you can have an international foreign policy, doesn't mean you can't win on a platform of protectionism and what donald trump has. it does mean transition to the next question. there is at least a basis for having an internationalist foreign policy session mean you don't have to become protections. election. there had to be against tv to win. you can be in favor of it if you make the case. you're just not going to win election. >> to timing. i want to chime in. you need to be careful on who you pick as your predecessor.

legislation a legislation about foreign affairs and that they don't usually override a presidential veto but i can tell you that there is bipartisan anger about this you've had senators come out powerful senators in the issue of foreign relations they've come out and directly said the crown prince mohammed bin solomon did this and he personally needs to be held accountable so it's they're not going to do anything this week it's a holiday week here in the united states but expect that legislation to be taken up and the big question is going to be just how big of a vote can they get just like with the russian sanctions they had huge levels of support so the president had to sign it because even if he had tried to veto it it would have been overridden and it would have looked bad for him considering what the special counsel is investigating now the other thing the other question is the white house isn't in charge of this completely they can't just make it go away it's not only congress we believe the special counsel is looking at potential ties between the trunk campaign and saudi arab

foreign office the foreign secretary jeremy hunt first issued a statement expressing his deep shock at the sentence issued on matthew hedges but he then followed it up with a post on social media which said the following matthew hedges news extremely worrying we have seen no evidence to back up the charges against him the f c o will do all we can to get him home and i will meet his wife daniella tomorrow thursday the u.a.e. claim to be a friend and ally of the u.k. so there will be serious diplomatic consequences and he finished that tweet with the word unacceptable. and the prime minister is also taking a close interest and we are of course as he is deeply disappointed and concerned today's verdict and i realize how difficult and distressing this is both for matthew hedges but for also for his family we are raising it with the international for it is the highest level military procurement deals have long been a central plank of u.k. mideast diplomacy but those links have been strained by the civilian casualties from the u.s. involvement in the war in yemen and by concerns over a clamp

power and of course she is historically been against russia was the foreign power that she directed or are at a change in to one of the us t.v. channels to to watch that coverage of the midterms without saying it was it seemed to me like it was pretty clear that they were all one party side from their reaction i just wondered what's your assessment of the role the media's plate in america in covering these elections have they being impartial have they played a role in dividing the country for the. well the media and the tremendous role to play and how the domestic population views the culture views the state of society and in the united states we do have several players in the mainstream media with you can probably playing the fox news is more oriented invariable toward the republican party led by donald trump and c.n.n. and invest in b.c. is more favorable towards the democrats i would say of the various media right now in the united states. most of the are pretty pathetic they i turn to foreign news primarily because i get more objective news either from r.t. or from al-jazeera an

policy i mean domestic and foreign policy of course it's a member state e.u. it's a member of international community but still we hope that all the countries in the world have their own views on what is going on and of course then they can and have to cooperate with we with each other but they issued. fulls a drone independent courses so what is what the london is doing is trying to build so-called coalitions and call for how they call it to be to be supportive to support london in they have foreign policy but what should other countries support all this fake news all the. disinformation what london prime minister may and her our government does spreading i'm not sure this is a good way for the independent countries and i'm not sure other countries are willing to do so and fall in this route this is the second destination of your delegation in europe you also well you've also been to rome earlier this week do you feel that any other major european powers are ready to follow sort of see the portuguese example in this kind of approach you know we are watching t

so i'm so surprised when i see how many foreign owned firms donate millions to the u.s. midterm elections so my question to you would be what are they expecting to get in return for their money because there's no such thing as a free lunch and you know certainly in politics. well that's the truth there is so much commerce done in the united states particularly by foreigners in tour interspersed with american companies and on their own that they have an interest in the elections but most most foreign interests in the united states are very careful to steer clear of it there are many laws planted taken deep across the nation that keep foreign nationals from being involved in the elections even in ways and that are that are you know innocuous you know letting the employees off for that day or something like that but they certainly can't donate and they can't advocate so i think that the interests that they may have of the legal version are rooting only those that interfere in a different way and in an illegal way are caught and punished hopefully and then this is something

of the foreign office here in the u.k. for not acting quickly enough and strongly enough in the early months of matthew's detention she has been quite scathing about that i think the foreign office will hope that by bringing her and the foreign secretary together in one room to discuss the case they can iron out their differences and both proceed in the same direction and that is with the intention of securing matthews' release as quickly as possible because as you heard from the foreign secretary and you will hear you can hear the that what daniel daniela said which was that basically matthew is an innocent academic just there in the u.a.e. for two weeks of academic research for his ph d. thesis and that is a and that counts which is backed up by friends colleagues people that university where he was doing his thesis all saying that matthew is certainly not what he is alleged to be certainly not a spy for britain who brennen live in london thank. lebanon is marking its seventy fifth independence from france but critics sa
