This week Latika Takes: The Podcast is in Prague at the GLOBSEC Forum, now in its 21st year.
She interviews Mark Esper, who served as US Secretary of Defence under Donald Trump, between 2019 and 2020.
Secretary Esper discusses why he felt ‘offended’ by the European response to the United States and Israel’s decision to launch a war against Iran in February and why it has set back NATO, already under fire from US President Donald Trump.
He discusses US expectations of allies in the event of a Chinese grab on Taiwan and how allies should approach dealings with the Trump Administration.
