Do You Think Status and Prestige Affect US Foreign Policy?
I think there's a self image in Washington that we are the hegemon. The US does not like other countries either standing up to it or even if they have reasonable disagreements, it just doesn't like hearing no because it takes that as an upfront to its social standing. So I do think status and honor are sort of ongoing, ongoing concerns for the, for the DC policy elite.
