Former President Donald Trump’s Defense Secretary Mark Esper has
come out against his old boss who fired him by tweet in November
2020, just days after the election. Esper has revealed in his
memoir that he stayed in the administration in order to ‘hold the
line’ against suggestions that the United States might bomb Mexico,
Venezuela, or send a quarter million troops to the southern border.
One Decision's Sir Richard Dearlove and Julia Macfarlane sit down
with Dr. Mark Esper to discuss the current threats to Western
interests originating overseas, his assessment of the Ukraine
counter-offensive, and if Europe is sleepwalking into a security
crisis, arming Ukraine but not refreshing their stocks fast enough.
They also discuss the threat China poses to Taiwan and what he
would change about AUKUS, the pact between the United Kingdom and
the United States, to assist Australia in acquiring nuclear-powered
submarines.
