What kind of foreign policy is possible for the United States after four years of isolationism under President Trump?

Antony Blinken, President-elect Joe Biden’s pick for secretary of state, has an interventionist streak, but some vestiges of Trump-era foreign policy will be hard to upend.

What course is he likely to steer through that narrow channel?


Guest: David E. Sanger, a national security correspondent for The New York Times.
