Richard Haass: Trump Moving Towards ‘Extreme Nationalism’ With UN Speech | Andrea Mitchell | MSNBC In this insightful segment, Richard Haass, President of the Council on Foreign Relations, discusses the implications of President Trump's recent speech at the United Nations, delivered on September 25, 2018. Highlighting the evolving landscape of international relations, Haass asserts that Trump's "America First" stance signals a shift towards extreme nationalism, which could alienate long-standing allies. During the conversation with Andrea Mitchell, Haass articulates concerns over Trump's approach. He mentions that the president’s rhetoric about prioritizing national interests can lead to a fragmentation of global alliances, suggesting a departure from the multilateralism that has traditionally characterized U.S. foreign policy. Haass compares the current state of affairs to the dismantling of the existing international order, echoing themes from his book, "A World in Disarray." Key points from the discussion include:

• The distinction between "America First" and the traditional internationalist approach that seeks cooperative relationships among nations.
• Haass's observation that nations might follow suit with their own versions of nationalism, potentially leading to a disjointed global response to issues like security and trade.
• The looming prospect of new negotiations with Iran, amid heightened tensions and sanctions, underlined by skepticism regarding their effectiveness.

As we reflect on this analysis in 2024, the consequences of that speech are still reverberating, with the global political climate continuously evolving. Haass's foresight into the "destruction of the old order" has proven prescient as nations navigate the complexities of nationalism versus collaboration in an interconnected world. What do you think about the evolution of U.S. foreign policy since Trump's tenure? Are we seeing a more divided world as Haass suggested, or do you think recent diplomatic efforts are bridging those gaps? Share your thoughts!
