Bill discusses the global challenges facing the United States with the Bill Press Pod Foreign Affairs expert Joe Cirincione. He is the former head of the Ploughshares Fund, and advisor to the U.S. State Department and a member of The Council on Foreign Relations. They discuss the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, with Cirincione highlighting the political motivations of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the need for a ceasefire. They also touch on the situation in Ukraine, where Cirincione emphasizes the importance of continued US assistance to prevent a victory for Russian President Vladimir Putin. Additionally, they discuss the tensions between North and South Korea, the new government in Taiwan, and the potential impact of the 2024 US presidential election on global peace and security. Cirincione warns that a second term for former President Donald Trump would be disastrous for international relations. Amen to that.
