nairiporterOK, the nightmare of the 4 Trump years may have ended. What now? And I mean, what's next for the world? Where does Biden bring America from here on?
"US power and influence abroad ultimately will depend on his ability to bring the nation together; repair its infrastructure, health and education systems; restore public trust in democracy; and close the yawning gaps of race and class. Given this, the question is where Mr Biden and his experienced foreign policy team should focus their limited time and attention." -- That is what one Anne-Marie Slaughter writes for the Financial Times.
Yes, of course. Leading by example is the first and topmost principle in any foreign policy. But what then? Where should the US focus, and how?
So let us make this as a poll. There are obviously many areas where the US should make dramatic shifts in its foreign policy, and others where a little tweaking might help improve both her standing in international politics, and geopolitical relations as a whole. But if you had to name the ONE area where the first, most immediate, most urgent, and most resolute focus should be on, which would be it? Here are some suggestions you may or may not pick from. I'd appreciate if you also elaborate a little on your selection.
