On this week's Defense & Aerospace Report Washington Roundtable, Dr. Patrick Cronin of the Hudson Institute think tank, Michael Herson of American Defense International, former Pentagon Europe chief Jim Townsend of the Center for a New American Security, former Pentagon comptroller Dr. Dov Zakheim of the Center for Strategic and International Studies join Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian to discuss Reconciliation and Senate rescissions as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee; two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses were shot and two are killed; Israel and Iran continue to trade attacks as Jerusalem presses ahead its drive to destroy Tehran's nuclear capabilities through air attacks and troops on the ground; after initially demanding Iran's “unconditional surrender,” President Trump has said he's given Iranian leaders an “ultimate ultimatum” to give up its nuclear aspirations while still weighing whether US forces should join Israel in strike; America is the only nation with the capabilities to bomb Iran's deeply buried sites, but doing so might cause nuclear contamination; at the G7 meeting in Canada, Trump again sided with Russia as leaders prepare to converge on The Hague for what will be an abbreviated NATO summit during which the US president is expected to announce the withdrawal of some American troops from Europe; the US Indo-Pacific Command raises its threat level as two Chinese aircraft carriers operate together in the South China Sea; as Britain's HMS Prince of Wales also is operating in the region; and the president cleaned the acquisition of US Steel by Nippon Steel after demanding the US government hold a “golden share” in the new entity.

Eric and Eliot welcome LTG (ret.) Douglas Lute, former Director of Operations for the Joint Staff, Deputy National Security Advisor for Iraq and Afghanistan under both Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, and former U.S. Ambassador to NATO to discuss the upcoming June 24-25 NATO Summit in the Hague. They discuss NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte's formulas for reaching the Trump Administration target for NATO Members to spend 5% of GDP on Defense (Rutte has proposed a 3 1/2 % defense spending target with 1 1/2% spending on infrastructure counting toward the 5% objective). Lute highlights the unpredictability that Trump brings to NATO Summits recounting his own experience in 2017 with the unveiling of the Article 5 memorial commemorating the invocation of Article 5 in response to 9/11 which Trump used as an opportunity to excoriate Angela Merkel and other European leaders. They discuss European attitudes towards Trump 2.0 and whether the shock effect will lead to more effective European efforts on defense. They discuss intra-European dynamics at NATO, the role Ukraine will play at the Summit, Trump's aversion to using leverage against Putin, extended nuclear deterrence in Europe, the communique drafting process at NATO (spoiler alert: there will be no communique at this Summit), the NSC decision-making process and Trump's parade and the danger of politicizing the military. Eliot's latest in The Atlantic: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2025/06/cohen-military-parade/683143/ Shield of the Republic is a Bulwark podcast co-sponsored by the Miller Center of Public Affairs at the University of Virginia.

Former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte took office with a vow to eliminate illegal drugs. His “war on drugs” resulted in the brutal killing of between 12,000 and 30,000 people. Despite the international outcry and extensive media coverage of the deaths and their impact, Duterte remained popular—and untouchable – until recently. In March, he was arrested on an International Criminal Court warrant for crimes against humanity and is now sitting in a jail cell in The Hague. Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Ressa, whose fearless reporting helped expose Duterte's brutal drug war, was targeted by Duterte – accused of everything from tax evasion to libel. In this episode of Rights & Wrongs, host Ngofeen Mputubwele speaks with Ressa and Human Rights Watch researchers about Duterte's bloody legacy, the importance of standing up to dictators, and what his arrest means for other leaders indicted by the ICC.

Throughout the world, migration has become the issue on which elections are decided. Why? And what does that tell us about ourselves? With Hiroshi Motomura, Matthew Longo, Wafa Al Ali, Nanda Oudejans en Martijn Stronks.While the EU continually breaks human rights to stop migrants from reaching Europe, the US is plunging itself into a constitutional crisis over a wrongfully deported migrant that is now detained in a Salvadorian prison.Migration is such a loaded subject, that it is difficult to see what an ethical migration policy could and should actually look like. Tonight, we discuss migration and migration policy, national borders and nationalist politics, and the toxic stranglehold they have on each other.About the speakers:Hiroshi Motomura is world renowned migration scholar, working at the UCLA School of Law. In his new book Borders and belonging, he offers a nuanced take on the very complex issue of migration. Starting with the national border as a concept, Motomura asks fundamental questions about the root causes of migration and offers realistic proposals towards fair migration policy.Matthew Longo is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Leiden University, where he teaches political theory. His work focuses on problems of borders and migration, with a thematic interest in questions of sovereignty, authority and freedom. He wrote the award winning books The Picnic: A Dream of Freedom and the Collapse of the Iron Curtain and The Politics of Borders: Sovereignty, Security, and the Citizen after 9/11.Nanda Oudejans is Associate Professor of Philosophy of Law and Director of the College of Law at the Faculty of Law, University of Amsterdam. Prior to joining the University of Amsterdam, she held academic positions at Utrecht University, VU Amsterdam, and Tilburg University. From 2012 to 2014, she served as Senior Policy Advisor to the Advisory Committee on Migration Affairs at the Ministry of Justice and Security in The Hague.Wafa Al Ali is a legal affairs journalist at the political desk of newspaper NRC, with a specific focus on asylum. For NRC, she also created the podcast series Generatie 9/11, about how Islamic and/or Arab youths experienced the aftermath of the attacks in the Netherlands. Al Ali chose journalism in 2020, after working in the NGO sector for several years.Martijn Stronks studied law and philosophy at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and Cape Town University, South Africa. After his studies he became Editor-in-Chief of the migration law journal Migrantenrecht and its successor Asiel&Migrantenrecht. Between 1 september 2012 and 31 augustus 2016 he wrote a legal and philosophical dissertation on the role of time in European migration law.

What neither side can deny at this point is that the scale of death and suffering is intolerable. Jewish people have been very recently killed in hate-fuelled attacks in the US - and it goes without saying that the mass killing of innocent Palestinians by Netanyahu's forces is doing nothing but grave harm to the Israeli cause.

In this 21WIRE LIVE midweek edition, host Patrick Henningsen speaks with guest, international human rights lawyer Arnaud Develay, about about Trump and Israel's war on the International Criminal Court in The Hague - in their dangerous attempt to derail the criminal case against Israeli war criminals PM Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. With an unprecedented attack like this from a western power, what are the ramifications for International Law? Also, we probe Trump's off-the-cuff announcement in Saudi Arabia that Washington will be lifting sanctions on Al-Jolani's regime in Syria. But will it happen, especially after Marco Rubio balked on it, and then predicted a civil war breaking out in Syria?

Human rights groups say his policies left tens of thousands of Filipino men dead, many of them from poor backgrounds with no proven connections to drug use. But despite these accusations, many Filipinos continue to support Duterte and denounce a worsening security situation, particularly in the capital Manila.

Through its focus on the relationship between foreign and domestic politics, Politics and Foreign Policy in the Age of George I, 1714-1727 (Routledge, 2016) provides a new perspective on the often fractious and tangled events of George I's reign (1714-27). This was a period of transition for Britain, as royal authority gave way to cabinet government, and as the country began to exercise increased influence upon the world stage. It was a reign that witnessed the trauma of the 1715 Jacobite Rebellion, saw Britain fighting Spain as part of the Quadruple Alliance, and in which Britain confronted the rise of Russia under Peter the Great.  There has been relatively little new detailed work on this subject since Hatton's biography of George I appeared in 1978, and that book, while impressive, devoted relatively little attention to the domestic political dimension of foreign policy. In contrast, Black links diplomacy to domestic politics to show that foreign policy was a key aspect of government as well as the leading battleground both for domestic politics and for ministerial rivalries. As a result he demonstrates how party identities in foreign policy were not marginal, to either policy or party, but, instead, central to both. The research is based upon a wealth of both British and foreign archive material, including State Papers Domestic, Scotland, Ireland and Regencies, as well as Foreign. Extensive use is also made of parliamentary and ministerial papers, as well as the private papers of numerous diplomats. Foreign archives consulted include papers from Hanover, Osnabruck, Darmstadt, Marburg, Munich, Paris, The Hague, Vienna and Turin. By drawing upon such a wide ranging array of sources, this book offers a rich and nuanced view of politics and foreign policy under George I. Learn more about your ad choices.
