Should Australia turn its back on the United States? And what's at stake if it did?
This episode hosts Kylie Morris and Hamish Macdonald turn their attention to the Indo-Pacific as the US scrambles to project power in the increasingly volatile region. To find out more they speak with former high-ranking US official Dr Ely Ratner, who argues America's traditional allies should show some resolve and strengthen their military pacts even as Trump tears up the international rules based order.
Guest: Dr Ely Ratner, former US Assistant Secretary of Defence for Indo-Pacific Security Affairs
