“We have established a post-diplomacy order in the west in which our leaders deny or disrupt diplomacy in wars that they cannot win... The unwinnable wars in Ukraine and in Iran are perfect illustrates of the post-diplomacy order... This leaves citizens impoverished by those wars their leaders continue, vulnerable to the consequences of wars their leaders won’t resolve, and at risk of dying in wars that they didn’t choose... Long-term, it is citizens who will wake up to this and realize that, in fact, their leaders are the real adversaries...Even if our leaders realize the catastrophic path they are leading us on; it will take a generation to rebuild a culture of diplomacy in the west”.
