Keylor in WalletHub on Trump’s Foreign Policy
William Keylor, Professor of International Relations and History at the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University, was recently interviewed on the foreign policy of United States President-Elect Donald Trump.
Keylor was interviewed for a December 15, 2016 article in WalletHub entitled “Will Donald Trump Be A Good President?”
From the text of the article:
Since his victory in the election, Donald Trump has ‘walked back’ many of his campaign pronouncements—on waterboarding, on the Affordable Care Act, on the total ban on Muslim immigration, on the prosecution of his opponent, among others. It is entirely possible that, once in the Oval Office, his inchoate plans to compel America’s transatlantic and transpacific allies to contribute more to their defense or risk losing the American pledge of extended deterrence will also fall by the wayside. Or he may stick to his guns, in which case he will upend America’s global security commitments that have been in place since the 1950s.
