Why Should You Care About Foreign Affairs? With Senator Chris Coons

Foreign policy can feel distant and complicated — but it shapes everything from our economy to our safety. Senator Chris Coons joins us to explain what’s actually going on in the world, and why it matters more than ever.
We cover:
• What foreign aid really is — and why it’s worth it
• What NATO literally stands for, what it does, and why it’s vital
• The latest on Ukraine and why support still matters
• What’s at stake with China, Taiwan, and the Pacific
• What’s the truth behind all the talk about Canada, Greenland, and the Panama Canal
• How this is affecting our place in the world
• What we should be doing instead, and what people can do in their communities
Clear, compelling, and deeply relevant — this is your foreign affairs explainer.
