Our world is far more dangerous now than it was when President Obama took office. His Nobel Peace Prize notwithstanding, peace is receding today faster than it has in a generation. President Obama and Secretary Clinton projected weakness, and weakness has proven provocative. Today, Russian president Vladimir Putin is on the march in Ukraine and eyeing the Baltic states. China is making an aggressive effort to exert global power by intimidating U.S. allies and demanding new territorial concessions, from South Korea to Japan to the Philippines to Taiwan and Singapore. Cuba is exporting arms to North Korea.
The world is facing greater dangers now compared to when President Obama began his presidency, despite his receipt of the Nobel Peace Prize. The current international environment reflects a notable decline in peace, the likes of which hasn't been seen for a generation. Critics argue that the approach taken by Obama and Secretary Clinton, perceived as weak, has only exacerbated global tensions.
As a result, aggressive actions are being observed, particularly from Russia and China. Russian President Putin is advancing in Ukraine and eyeing nearby Baltic nations, while China is increasingly pressuring U.S. allies to make territorial concessions. This trend also includes Cuba's involvement in arming North Korea, indicating a broader pattern of international threats that are destabilizing and challenging U.S. influence across multiple regions.
