Trumps und Vances Doktrin des militärischen Realismus ist ein Zeichen der Hoffnung für die Ukraine – und kein Zeichen der Isolation

SS: Niall Ferguson writes in the New York Post that JD Vance’s views on foreign policy are not as isolationist as commonly claimed. While Vance has certainly aligned himself in recent years with the wings of the MAGA movement and Republican Party that view American leadership abroad with strong skepticism, examining Vance’s on the record statements shows that he is hardly poised to advocate abandoning Ukraine to Russian aggression. Moreover, Vance will help to advance “Trump’s central claim about foreign policy,” that “he was able to deter the Axis of Ill Will and Biden has failed utterly to do so.” Overall Ferguson suggests that realism, not isolationism is the proper framework in which to understand the new turn of foreign policy on the Trump ticket.
