About this listen

In recent months, the Trump administration has made the case in its ⁠National Security Strategy⁠ that the Western Hemisphere has been overlooked for too long. In this conversation, host Adrienne Ross discusses the pivot toward centering U.S. focus on the Americas. Her two guests include Brian Fonseca⁠, vice provost for defense and national security research and director of the Jack D. Gordon Institute for Public Policy at Florida International University. He is also the founding executive director of cybersecurity at FIU. And also joining her is Carlos Díaz-Rosillo⁠, founding director of the Adam Smith Center for Economic Freedom. During the first Trump administration, Díaz-Rosillo held a variety of high-level positions, including acting principal deputy assistant secretary of defense for international security affairs. The three tackle a number of topics that will be discussed at ⁠FIU’s 11th Annual Hemispheric Security Conference⁠ in May, including the modern-day application of the Monroe Doctrine, Venezuela’s future, and the Shield of the Americas coalition.
