By and large though, Biden’s foreign policy already seems stuck in the militarist quagmire of the past twenty years, a far cry from his campaign promise to reinvigorate diplomacy as the primary tool of U.S. foreign policy.

Achieving peace is not possible without engaging regional powers
15 March 2021 (Wall Street International)* — After 20 years of international allied engagement in Afghanistan, the country is in a worse state than ever. Despite the peace talks in Doha between the Government of Afghanistan and Taliban, the security situation has deteriorated significantly.
