Matthew Kroenig and Dan Negrea, authors of We Win, They Lose: Republican Foreign Policy and the New Cold War, do not wonder whether a new cold war against the Chinese Communist Party is afoot. Instead, they join the show to explain that when it arrives, America will need a fusion of Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump foreign policies to ensure complete and total victory. Whether it's kinetic military capabilities, diplomatic willpower, or economic maneuvering, defeating China will require a whole-of-country approach.

Is a regional war across the Middle East about to erupt? And what to make of a Venezuelan regime that doesn't honor election results? Matthew Kroenig, Vice President and Senior Director of the Atlantic Council's Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security and coauthor of the book We Win They Lose: Republican Foreign Policy and the New Cold War, joins Hoover senior fellows John Cochrane and H.R. McMaster to discuss lessons from deterrence (or a lack thereof) past, present, and future. Next, John explains how a market meltdown underscores a fragile world economy, followed by a discussion of two historical milestones: 50 years since Richard Nixon's resignation (with public trust in government today significantly lower than in Watergate's heyday); and Herbert Hoover's 150th birthday (as to his humanitarian pursuits, where would our fellows be without Hoover's namesake institution?).

When Ronald Reagan was a presidential candidate, he was asked about his strategy for the Cold War. He had a simple answer: “We win, and they lose.”Former President Reagan was crystal clear about the Soviet Union and its intentions, but today, few seem to understand the Chinese Communist Party's true intentions towards America.“We Win, They Lose” is the title of a new book by Matthew Kroenig and Dan Negrea, both working with the Atlantic Council. They outline what a Reaganesque foreign policy—updated for today—would look like.Mr. Kroenig is vice president and senior director of the Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security, and Mr. Negrea is senior director of the Freedom and Prosperity Center.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

America is in a fight for its cultural, political and economic life -- and it's not just a battle against Democrats who want to destroy the Constitution and usher in a new system. of governance more in line with socialism and communism and Marxism. It's a fight against China. The communists in China are coming on strong to dominate the world stage, and if America doesn't get its act together, then freedom will suffer -- and not just in the United States. The world needs America to win this war, else China communism will spread like a cancer all around the world. Matthew Kroenig discusses his new "We Win, They Lose," and how America can most effectively lead on foreign policy.

President Reagan knew a detent with the Soviet Union wouldn't win the Cold War. If we take off the gloves and force Soviet communism to compete with American democracy, he thought, the U.S. will prevail. In a phrase: “We win, they lose.” He was right. The U.S. won. The Soviet Union collapsed. But in the decades since as America's role in the world diminished and the rules-based order decayed, Russia relapsed. And as he puts back the pieces of a shattered Soviet Union one illegal land-grab at a time, Putin is hardly the only despot hellbent on resurrecting an imperial renaissance in the shadows of American retrenchment.Also jonesing for a rise from the ash heap of history are the Islamist regime in Tehran and Chinese Communist Party in Beijing. Together with Moscow, they've formed a neo-imperialist axis to take on the West in a New Cold War. With the U.S. facing multiple nuclear-powered adversaries in a conflict for the first time ever, the second Cold War is shaping up to be far more dangerous than the first. With such high stakes, CWII's outcome will no doubt be a decisive chapter in modern history. The task of navigating the free world through this crisis falls on one desk (you know the one). And while he who will sit behind it remains uncertain, the possibilities can be narrowed down to two. Both have sat there before. So far, only one has a tailored roadmap for winning Cold War II, and it's based entirely on Reagan's playbook. The experts behind the strategy (AKA their new book: We Win, They Lose: Republican Foreign Policy and the New Cold War) are Matthew Kroenig and Dan Negrea. They join host Cliff May who has some questions for them.

Drawing inspiration from President Ronald Reagan's goal for the contest with the Soviet Union - “We win, and they lose” - Matthew Kroenig and Dan Negrea's new book, We Win They Lose: Republican Foreign Policy & the New Cold War, articulates a conservative strategy to defeat the Chinese Communist Party as America navigates a New Cold War.Dissecting the major national security challenges implicated in the New Cold War, from the Chinese partnership with authoritarian powers and American adversaries across the globe to the disaster unfolding on America's unsecured southern border, Kroenig and Negrea explain how a conservative approach is best positioned to address these complex challenges and make the 21st century an American century.

Foreign Election Interference- Could the United States slowly be turning away from our best ally in the Middle East, Israel?  The Biden administration is putting enormous pressure on Israel to stop fighting the war that the terrorist organization Hamas started on October 7, 2023.  In a recent speech, Jewish Senator Chuck Schumer even advocated for the removal of Israel's sitting Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and for holding new elections in that country to find a more moderate government.  Online Opinion Editor for the Washington Times, Cheryl Chumley, gives us her expert take on what's really going on in this standoff.  Also, ... We Win; They Lose- Dr. Wendy Patrick and co-host Larry Dershem interview Dr. Matthew Kroenig about his new book We Win; They Lose: Republican Foreign Policy and the New Cold War.  What is the biggest threat against the United States today?  Is it China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, or is it a badly run U.S. foreign policy that's edging the world toward a tipping point of no return.  Be sure to listen to our mesmerizing interview with one of the top foreign policy experts in the United States today.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In their new book, "We Win, They Lose: Republican Foreign Policy and the New Cold War," authors Matthew Kroenig and Dan Negrea argue that a GOP foreign policy consensus is emerging, which they call the Trump-Reagan Fusion. They believe that any viable GOP foreign policy must build on the legacies of Trump and Reagan. The authors argue that the Trump-Reagan fusion is superior to progressive alternatives and can guide the GOP, the United States, and the American people to greater levels of peace, prosperity, and freedom. They also discuss the challenges posed by China and Russia, and the need for a strategic approach to these threats.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Amerikan dış politika elitleri arasında Çin ve Rusya'yı “ikiz tehdit” olarak gören ciddi bir eğilim söz konusu. Bu bağlamda “Liberal Enternasyo- nalistler” ile “Neoconlar”ın bakış açıları şahin bir çizgide çakışıyor. Dış politikada “Real politikçiler” veya “Realistler” olarak bilinen kesimler ise bu görüşlere bir hayli mesafeliler. Hem Liberal Enternasyonalistler ve hem de Neoconlar, “Realistler”e adeta savaş açtılar. Hedefe konulan ilk isimlerden biriyse, yıllar önce NATO'nun Doğu'ya Genişlemesini eleştiren siyaset bilimci Prof. John Mearsheimer olmuştu. Diğer yandan sıkı Trumpçı Cumhuriyetçiler özellikle “Rusya” konusunda kendilerini “Neoconlar”dan ve “Merkezci-Cumhuriyetçiler”den ayrıştırıyorlar. Benzer bir ayrışma “Demokrat Parti”nin ana akım Merkezci kanadıyla daha Sol'daki kanatları arasında da yaşanıyor tabii. “Demokrat Parti” ve “Cumhuriyetçi Parti”nin merkezci kanatları arasındaysa Rus ve Çin karşıtlığı konusunda ciddi bir çelişki söz konusu değil. Kendilerini Trumpistlerden, Merkezci Cumhuriyetçilerden ve “Neoconlar”dan ayıran “Ulusal Muhafazâkârlar” ise ABD'nin Çin ve Rusya ile yeni Soğuk Savaşı'na karşılar. Bu kesime göre “Rusya” Avrupalıların çözmesi gereken bölgesel bir sorundur, Çin ise, ABD için doğrudan bir tehdit oluşturmuyor. Çin ve Rusya'yı küresel düzenin önde gelen iki büyük çözücüsü olarak gören şahinler ABD'nin her iki güce karşı aynı anda savaş vermesi gerektiğini savunuyorlar. Buna göre Washington ve müttefikleri Rusya ve Çin'i aynı anda caydırabilecek, gerekirse yenilgiye uğratabilecek eş-zamanlı savunma stratejisi geliştirmelidirler. “Amerikan Askeri-Endüstriyel Kompleksi”yle bağlantılı Şahinler, Biden Yönetimi'nin ulusal savunma stratejisini biçimlendirmek için yoğun bir çaba harcadılar. “Foreign Policy” dergisinde Şubat'ta Matthew Kroenig tarafından yayınlanan bir yazı şahinlerin bakış açısını çok açık şekilde yansıtıyordu. Kroenig, 2020'de Oxford Üniversitesi tarafından yayınlanan “Büyük Güç Rekabetinin Dönüşü: Antik Dünyadan ABD ve Çin'e Otokrasiye Karşı Demokrasi” başlıklı kitabıyla da tanınıyor. Halihazırda Atlantik Konseyi Scowcroft Strateji ve Güvenlik Merkezi Direktör Yardımcısı görevi yapan Kroenig, “Foreign Policy” dergisindeki makalesinde Washington'un Çin ve Rusya ile ayn anda savaşa hazır olmak zorunda olduğunu savunuyordu. Kroenig bu yargısını yazısının başlığına kadar taşımıştı. ABD'nin Avrupa ve Hint-Pasifikler arasında bir seçim yapmasının hata olacağını savunan Kroenig Washington ve müttefiklerinin Rusya ve Çin'i aynı anda caydırabilecek ve gerekirse yenilgiye uğratabilecek eşzamanlı bir savunma stratejisi öneriyordu. Kroenig'e göre ABD ve Batılı müttefikleri küresel GSYİH'nın yaklaşık yüzde 60'ına sahip oldukları için Rusya ve Çin'e karşı askeri güç dengesini lehlerine sağlayacak durumdalar. Askeri harcamaların eski Soğuk Savaş dönemindeki oranları yakalaması gerektiğini savunan Kroenig, ABD'nin rakiplerinin yerel avantajlarını dengelemek için nükleer silahlara daha fazla güvenebileceğini bile ifade ediyordu. Yeni Soğuk Savaş'taki karşı güçlerin öncekinden çok daha tehlikeli olduklarını savunan Kroenig, ABD'nin eski Soğuk Savaş taktik kitabından yararlanmasını salık veriyordu. Yazarın, Biden Yönetimince ABD Kongresi'ne sunulması geciktirilmiş olan 2022 Ulusal Savunma Strateji Belgesi'ni etkileme çabası gözden kaçmıyordu.

Negotiations between the United States and the Islamic Republic of Iran have not gone well. President Biden may soon have to choose between two unappealing options: allowing the theocratic regime to become a nuclear-weapons power or using military force to prevent that outcome. Mark Dubowitz, FDD's chief executive, and Matthew Kroenig, a former senior policy advisor at the Pentagon, now a professor of government at Georgetown University, and director of the Atlantic Council's Scowcroft Strategy Initiative, recently published an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal arguing that one of those options is decidedly worse than that other. They join Foreign Podicy host Cliff May to discuss.

Matt Kroenig of the Atlantic Council and Georgetown University has written a new book, The Return of Great Power Rivalry, which lays the basis for a very optimistic view of how America's competition with China will unfold. He joins Mike and Marshall to explain his argument in detail and defend it against alternative views.

In this week's episode, A'ndre and Ryan talk with Ash Jain and Ambassador (ret.) Daniel Fried about the importance of democratic multilateralism. Ash and Amb. Fried advocate for expanding the G-7 into a D-10, which would be a broader forum for the world's leading democratic countries. They also discuss whether the world is currently defined by the divide between democracy versus autocracy, and how the United States can spearhead the advancement of liberal values on the world stage. The conversation concludes by emphasizing the importance of democracy both in the United States and around the world. To learn more about the proposed D-10, check out Ash's recent report with Matthew Kroenig, as well as our 100 Days episode featuring Ash's idea of creating a D-10 Steering Committee. 

In the final installment of The Burn Bag Podcast’s miniseries with the Atlantic Council’s Scowcroft Center, A’ndre and Ryan have Barry Pavel and Matthew Kroenig, the Center’s Director and Deputy Director, on to reflect on the Biden Administration’s performance in the actual first 100 days with respect to security policy. We discuss how the first 100 days might indicate future trends in policymaking, such as with alliance building and the swift toughness the Biden Administration has shown on China and Russia. Both Barry and Matt provide their praise and criticism of some decisions, praising the quickness with which President Biden has addressed some issues such as cyber, while expressing concern over  a lack of policy on North Korea and an underestimation in terms of the “need for speed” with regards to China’s developments. We spend the rest of the interview going over some overarching themes and trends within the first 100 Days, and the challenges that lie ahead for President Biden.

Nuclear modernization is key to maintaining the U.S. nuclear deterrence capability. Dr. Kroenig and Mr. Costlow, two established experts in nuclear deterrence strategy and policy, join the Mitchell Insitute to discuss the modernization of the ICBM force; how our nuclear deterrent affects our allies, partners, and adversaries; and what China and Russia's modernization means for our own nuclear forces.

This event is sponsored by the Asia Initiative Lecture Series at The Institute of World Politics. About the lecture: The United States of America has been the most powerful country in the world for over seventy years, but recently the U.S. National Security Strategy declared that the return of great power competition with Russia and China is the greatest threat to U.S. national security. Further, many analysts predict that America's autocratic rivals will have at least some success in disrupting-and, in the longer term, possibly even displacing-U.S. global leadership. Brilliant and engagingly written, The Return of Great Power Rivalry argues that this conventional wisdom is wrong. Drawing on an extraordinary range of historical evidence and the works of figures like Herodotus, Machiavelli, and Montesquieu and combining it with cutting-edge social science research, Matthew Kroenig advances the riveting argument that democracies tend to excel in great power rivalries. He contends that democracies actually have unique economic, diplomatic, and military advantages in long-run geopolitical competitions. He considers autocratic advantages as well, but shows that these are more than outweighed by their vulnerabilities. Kroenig then shows these arguments through the seven most important cases of democratic-versus-autocratic rivalries throughout history, from the ancient world to the Cold War. Finally, he analyzes the new era of great power rivalry among the United States, Russia, and China through the lens of the democratic advantage argument. By advancing a “hard-power” argument for democracy, Kroenig demonstrates that despite its many problems, the U.S. is better positioned to maintain a global leadership role than either Russia or China. A vitally important book for anyone concerned about the future of global geopolitics, The Return of Great Power Rivalry provides both an innovative way of thinking about power in international politics and an optimistic assessment of the future of American global leadership.

Zack, Jenn, and Alex break down one of the DC foreign policy world’s hottest new catchphrases: “great power competition.” It’s the idea that international politics in the 21st century will be dominated by a struggle for influence between the US, China, and (to a lesser extent) Russia. The gang talks about what the concept actually means and whether it’s a useful framework for understanding international politics today and in the future. References: Dan Nexon’s Foreign Affairs article inspired the Worldly crew to record this episode. The Atlantic had an excellent piece explaining how “great power competition” became a DC buzzword. The National Interest had an op-ed detailing why great power competition could be a problem. Matthew Kroenig wrote in Foreign Policy on how the US should outline goals for its competition with China. The Congressional Research Service has a comprehensive report on what “great power competition” has meant in recent years.

Great powers don’t always go great together, often viewing each other as rivals, if not enemies. After the Cold War, the United States was viewed as the last superpower standing. But not only has Russia and its nuclear arsenal stubbornly refused to go away, China has kept on rising.Now, people at the highest levels of government are trying to figure out whether China and the United States can play nice together, but whether the 21st will be the Chinese Century.Joining us to help understand the situation is Matthew Kroenig. Kroenig is both a political scientist and national security strategist at the Atlantic Council. He is also the author of the Return of Great Power Rivalry: Democracy Versus Autocracy from the Ancient World to the U.S. and China Matthew Kroenig.Recorded 8/21/20The innovatorsInnovating with government moneyWhere China’s labor comes fromChina’s soft power strategyA coming generational struggle See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The United States has enjoyed a position of relative primacy in the international system since the end of World War II, but are those days numbered as China and other powers continue to rise? Or does Washington still have a few more decades left in the tank? Matthew Kroenig, a political scientist and the Deputy Director of the Atlantic Council's Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security, has a decidedly more optimistic view of the capacity of American democracy to help the country prevail in the new rivalries with China and Russia. On the podcast, Kroenig discusses these questions by taking a critical look at the strengths of weaknesses of democracies vs. autocracies by highlighting seven different confrontations between rivals, from from ancient Greece to the Cold War. In his new book, "The Return of Great Power Rivalry: Democracy versus Autocracy from the Ancient World to the U.S. and China," he argues that although democracies do not always win wars, they do have outsized strategic advantages in comparison to autocracies, from culture to innovation to the financial strength of a world reserve currency. When you are "the capital of capital," Kroenig argues, you have a major advantage in your ability to deficit spend and build up your capabilities, and we've always seen international finance exist in more open societies, from Venice to Amsterdam to London to Wall Street. "Autocracies historically don't do well when it comes to international finance," Kroenig says. "People don't trust investing in autocratic countries, and it's also because to have a financial system you have to allow the free flow of currency, money, in and out of your borders, and autocracies don't like allowing things flowing in and out of their borders." In this regard, he points out, China is not even particularly trying hard to make the RMB a reserve currency, while President Xi appears to be prioritizing political control over economic growth by increasing the Communist Party's control over the economy. Numerous others we've had on the podcast take the opposite view, that we are witnessing the final days of American hegemony. Time will tell us who is right, it seems.

In the decades since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States has held sole global leadership. However, that leadership role is today contested by Russia and especially China. The crisis over the COVID-19 pandemic has illustrated the danger of the West’s dependence on Chinese exports and highlighted China’s pursuit of global technological and military dominance.Yet, as a democracy, the United States stands a good chance of maintaining its global leadership role. In his new book, "The Return of Great Power Rivalry," Matthew Kroenig argues that the human and social values embodied in the American system makes it far stronger and enduring than autocratic regimes.

The coronavirus pandemic is likely to redefine the US-China relationship in the months and years ahead. President Trump as well as the Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden have both leveled heavy criticism against China, charging that the country exacerbated the problem by misleading the world about the origins and the nature of the threat. The US wariness over the increasing economic and military power of China has been further complicated by the Trump administration's on-and-off trade war in recent years. Now, the relationship will take on a global public health dimension due to the Covid-19 pandemic that has exacted enormous costs on the world. The SETA Foundation at Washington DC is pleased to host a webinar event to discuss these questions and the future of US-China relations with James J. Carafano of The Heritage Foundation and Matthew Kroenig of Georgetown University. This session is moderated by Kilic B. Kanat, Research Director at SETA DC. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/seta-dc/support

As Russia and China advance their nuclear forces and North Korea and Iran continue to pursue nuclear capabilities, the U.S. nuclear arsenal slowly decays. Deterioration of the nuclear enterprise has become so serious that a failure to deliver systems like the Ground Based Strategic Deterrent or the W80-4 warhead on time could result in a critical gap in the U.S. nuclear deterrent.In the new book from the Center for Security Policy Press, Growing Challenges for America’s Nuclear Deterrent, nine national security experts examine the threat to the U.S. nuclear arsenal and what it takes to deter nuclear attack, assure U.S. allies and partners, achieve U.S. objectives if deterrence fails, and hedge against future threats. On May 5, hear three of these expert contributors, Fred Fleitz, Dr. Matthew Kroenig, and Dr. Michaela Dodge, discuss the nuclear force necessary to deter, fight, and win a nuclear conflict.
