  • Should the U.S. Decouple from China?

    Should the U.S. Decouple from China?
    Apr 25 2025
    For decades, China has been central for global supply chains and a primary U.S. trade partner, but as China’s influence grows, should the U.S. cut economic ties, or stay engaged? Those in favor of decoupling say it is vital for protecting national security and reducing reliance on China’s supply chains. Those against decoupling argue doing so would harm U.S. businesses, stall innovation, and deepen global divides. Now we debate: Should the U.S. Decouple from China? Arguing Yes: Derek Scissors, Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute Isaac Stone Fish, CEO and Founder of Strategy Risks Arguing No: Benn Steil, Senior Fellow and Director of International Economics at the Council on Foreign Relations Susan Shirk, Research Professor and Director Emeritus of the 21st Century China Center at UC San Diego School of Global Policy Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Was Trump Right to Be Hard on Soft Power in the Middle East?

    Was Trump Right to Be Hard on Soft Power in the Middle East?
    Apr 18 2025
    The U.S. has long balanced military strength with soft power in the Middle East through agencies like USAID. With the Trump administration reversing these policies, is this a necessary realignment—or a costly retreat? Those against these changes argue this will boost rivals like Iran and China and harm America’s image. Those hailing them argue it’s a necessary correction, favoring clear, transactional geopolitical goals over costly diplomacy. Now we debate: Was Trump Right to Be Hard on Soft Power in the Middle East? Arguing Yes: Faisal Saeed Al Mutar, President & Founder of Ideas Beyond Borders Arguing No: Jeffrey Gedmin, President & CEO of the Middle East Broadcasting Networks Xenia Wickett, Geopolitical strategist, moderator at Wickett Advisory, and Trustee of Transparency International UK, is the guest moderator.

    NASA, SpaceX, and other private companies are working on plans to make Mars humanity’s next frontier. However, should settling Mars be one of America’s priorities?
