Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#196: Iran, Military Housing & Unifying Congress - Representative Mike Levin (CA-49)
Q: Would you agree though that Iran is a direct threat to the United States?
There is a question of defining 'direct' and 'imminent'; there is not a provided, clear direct and imminent threat to the U.S., and thus the need for congressional authorization and a well-communicated strategy before any sustained action.
#190: Building The Unified Global Special Operations Alliance - CSM(R) Warren Soeldner
Q: When you look across NATO right now, what do you think the biggest threat is?
Russia remains a major threat, but the alliance must also guard against China and Iran, and ensure our partners have the infrastructure and technology to counter these challenges without becoming overly dependent on any single nation.
#187: NATO Leading Innovation - DIANA Chief Commercial Officer Ryan Benitez
Q: What countries do you think, from an innovation standpoint, are leading the rest of the Alliance?
The Netherlands, known for their quick testing and contracting with startups, along with nations that have less traditional defense industrial bases turning to emerging technology.
#187: NATO Leading Innovation - DIANA Chief Commercial Officer Ryan Benitez
Q: What is NATO Diana and what's your role there?
NATO Diana is the Defence Innovation Accelerator for the North Atlantic, and Ryan is its Chief Commercial Officer, focusing on connecting startups and emerging technologies to NATO's military needs.
#183: Defending Eastern Europe - Romanian Special Operations Forces Commander Major General Claudiu Dobocan
Q: What do you see in terms of the Romanian culture within the special operations units?
The culture values direct action and adaptability; future guidance includes embracing new technologies and ensuring the military dictates its technological requirements.
