Although it may be frowned upon, the U.S. is pushing aside the foreign policy to focus on domestic policy. I see this as a necessary evil. In order to be an asset to the rest of the world, we need to deal with our own problems first. If this means delaying foreign policy to a lower spot on the agenda, so be it. Paul Reynolds of the BBC said that even though President Obama believes "yes we can" he has left but a light footprint on our affairs with Afghanistan and Iran. Reynolds says that this approach, "no drama Obama," will not last. My stand is this: I agree that we must increase our attention towards foreign affairs; but I understand that domestically we may not be prepared. However I do think that Obama is trying to reform more than is necessary. The President should distribute the time he spends focussing on each issue, as opposed to one at a time.
My stand is:
ReplyDeleteI agree with you because i think its not bad to think in all the issues that your country has, but the president should distribute his time in a more efficient way.
Every issue of the country as domesticall or foreign conserns in the same way.
