Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

From Soldier to Diplomat: Overcoming Culture Shock
Q: What was the culture shock you experienced transitioning from the military to becoming a diplomat?
The culture shock began even during orientation, mainly due to the informal nature of interactions within the Foreign Service, contrasting markedly with the hierarchical structure of the military.
The U.S. Military Posture Amid Domestic Deployments
Q: Given that the Supreme Court last summer gave pretty blanket immunity to presidents for their official acts, do you have any worries about anything potentially that the president might do in terms of using the military?
Yes, I worry that the courts would not have been a good recourse anyway for things that Trump might have done or might still do with the military.
The U.S. Military Posture Amid Domestic Deployments
Q: What impact do you think the domestic deployments of parts of the military have had on that posture?
They make me nervous, but they don't cause me angst yet. Overall, they seem to be doing fine and maintaining a useful presence.
The Diplomacy Behind the Gaza Deal
Q: Do you believe it's realistic that Hamas will disarm?
No, it is not realistic as there's no feasible plan to disarm Hamas effectively.
The Diplomacy Behind the Gaza Deal
Q: Do you think that's deserved? And how do you see this deal playing out, at least in the short and medium term?
Pletka acknowledges the deal as good but highlights concerns about its execution and sustainability.
