After a 15 year democratic global recession, including recently the collapse of democracy in Tunisia, and the return of the Taliban, we need to play more defense -- protect recent democratic gains. That's why Ukraine is so important. My take: https://t.co/I6PXWdqqaF — PolitiTweet.org

That said, Im still a liberal internationalist or a "pragmatic idealist." We don't win against China & Russia (notice Biden mentioned both today) without a stronger normative game. My latest here: https://t.co/mpgZNjmGzO — PolitiTweet.org
Michael McFaul @McFaul
Failure does that to you (including me). I've seen that cycle with some former Bush administration officials too. & Biden spoke more optimistically about democracy-building in Afghanistan in the 2000s than now. — PolitiTweet.org
Michael McFaul @McFaul
Had my first discussion with him about (academic definitions of) realism vs liberalism in August 2008. His response: we are short-term realists and long-term liberals/idealists. He also changed over time. His liberal aspirations peaked in May 2011 speech. Faded afterward — PolitiTweet.org

Michael McFaul @McFaul
P.S. And as I have written before (& discussed with Obama on many occasions) every American administration since 1945 has had strands of both realism and liberalism, including even Trump's team. Never black and white, just different emphases (think Reagan vs Nixon). — PolitiTweet.org
Michael McFaul @McFaul
Interesting. I'll think about it. But do "realists" convene democracy summits? Do realists say human rights are at the center of their foreign policies? Do realists define great power competition in ideological terms? Biden has done all 3. So, Im a little confused. — PolitiTweet.org

To those declaring the end of Western liberalism today, please have humility about our abilities to predict the future. Analysts said similar things in the 1930s, 1948, 1950, 1975. Yes, we are in a fifteen-year global democratic recession. But will it last forever? I'm skeptical. — PolitiTweet.org

So how would you now describe Biden's worldview? I'm genuinely curious since I have described him before in lectures as a liberal internationalist. Time to update my 2X2 boxes? (I have realism/liberalism on one axis and isolationalist/internationalist on the other axis.) — PolitiTweet.org
Benjamin Haddad @benjaminhaddad
This was one of the most eloquent repudiation of liberal internationalism by any US president in the last decades.

The superficial conflation of military intervention and support for democracy abroad needs to end. There are many ways to support democratic ideas globally that have nothing to do with the use of military force. You can be pro-democracy and anti-war. — PolitiTweet.org

PS The Suez crisis referred to by the British intelligence official was in 1956. (The Soviet invasion of Hungary that same year was also a pretty major defeat for liberal ideas, but Suez was a bigger deal for Brits than Americans as I learned as a student @UniofOxford.) — PolitiTweet.org
