Bob Marshall on Foreign Policy

Republican Senate challenger


Re-examine our entangling alliances with 60 countries

Until our 1949 entrance into NATO, the US followed George Washington's advice to avoid permanent entangling military alliances. Now, we have treaties to defend approximately 60 countries on five continents.

Former UN Ambassador Jeanne Kirkpatrick said that we must reexamine the reasons for alliances we now have, and stop spending American money and deploying American manpower to protect affluent and militarily capable nations that are able to defend themselves. I agree with her.
