‘The West Is Winning’ – Pompeo Defends US Global Role
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo speaks on the podium at the 56th Munich Security Conference in Munich, southern Germany, on February 15, 2020. Christof STACHE / AFPUS Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Friday rejected European pessimism about Washington’s retreat from the global stage, saying the death of the transatlantic bond is “grossly overexaggerated”.
“Those statements don’t reflect reality. I’m happy to report that the death of the transatlantic alliance is grossly over-exaggerated,” Pompeo said, paraphrasing a famous Mark Twain quote. He also warned of the threats posed by Russia’s territorial ambitions, China’s military buildup in the South China Sea and Iran’s “campaigns of terror” through proxy conflicts in the Middle East.
