In this thoughtful conversation with Katie, the former Defense Secretary reflects on the global crises now testing U.S. leadership&mdash;from the war in Ukraine to rising threats in the Middle East&mdash;and explains why diplomacy, consistency, and bipartisan cooperation are more essential than ever. As America grapples with a fractured political identity, Gates makes a compelling case for restoring experience and long-term thinking to our foreign policy playbook.</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
