Blinken: When America becomes unreliable, our partners do not stand still
Washington, August 14 (Hibya) - Former United States (US) Secretary of State Antony Blinken commented on the global credibility of the US, its alliances and the consequences of this situation for the American people.
Former US Secretary of State Antony Blinken highlighted the importance of the United States' position in the international arena and its ties with allies.
Emphasizing the consequences of losing credibility and the response of allies, Blinken said, "When America becomes unreliable, our allies and partners do not stand still. They adapt, hedge, and look elsewhere. The consequences of that for the American people are serious."
Recalling that he has been warning about this issue for a long time, Blinken referred to an article by journalist Fareed Zakaria and concluded his statement by saying, "I have been warning about this for more than a year. This piece by Zakaria shows very clearly that restoring US credibility is not just about repairing relationships; it is about protecting our security, prosperity and leadership."
