The cross-party camps that define American foreign policy, revealed. OCTOBER 3, 2023 |

The cross-party camps that define American foreign policy, revealed. OCTOBER 3, 2023  |  [VIEW IN BROWSER](  |  [SUBSCRIBE](     Foreign Policy illustration/Getty Images It’s become conventional wisdom that American politics has never been more polarized and that lawmakers now rarely reach across the aisle that separates the Democratic and Republican parties. But there’s one area in which this truism does not apply. As Ash Jain, a former director with the Atlantic Council’s Scowcroft Center, [writes]( in FP, “On most domestic policy issues, whether political leaders have an R or a D next to their name is often a pretty good guide to their take on any particular issue. But when it comes to foreign policy, the normal rules of politics do not apply.” Instead of relying on the traditional political spectrum, Jain has created a foreign-policy ideology spectrum for American politics. It reveals fundamentally different views about the U.S. role in the world that cut across parties. These views are not widely understood and group such disparate thinkers as Madeleine Albright and Mike Pence, who Jain classifies as “democratic internationalists” on one end, and FP’s own [Stephen M. Walt]( and Rand Paul as “restrainers” on the other. [Read more]( about these hugely influential camps in Jain’s exclusive analysis for FP.—The editors   New and Noteworthy - The End of Nagorno-Karabakh: Following more than three decades of cross-border violence, the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region has [ceased]( to exist, marking a major win for Azerbaijan and furthering the mass exodus of ethnic Armenians from the area. “It’s really interesting how differently Washington is treating this from Ukraine—another war that resulted from the legacies of the Soviet collapse,” writes FP’s Emma Ashford in her latest It’s Debatable [column]( with Matthew Kroenig. Read more from their conversation on what Washington and Moscow’s posturing in post-Soviet conflicts means for great-power influence. - Blue Hawk Down: U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez’s indictment will shape the future of Congress’s foreign policy, [reports]( FP’s Robbie Gramer as he follows last month’s indictment alleging that Menendez secretly worked to advance the interests of a foreign power, Egypt, in exchange for bribes, and sought to influence criminal charges against businessmen involved in the scheme. Gramer spoke with more than a dozen current and former staffers on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, as well as lawmakers and outside experts, on the fallout of the indictment and what it means for Congress and the Biden administration’s agenda. - India-Canada Rift: In the wake of allegations by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accusing the Indian government of involvement in the assassination of a Sikh activist on Canadian soil, “strategic imperatives and a deep partnership with strong support from all sides mean that the risk of such tensions plunging the [Washington-New Delhi] relationship into crisis remains low,” suggests FP’s Michael Kugelman in his latest [South Asia Brief](. But the Biden administration’s silence on these allegations is risking U.S. credibility, counters FP’s Howard W. French in his latest [column](. “What can remain of America’s claims to favoring democracy in a world where it is increasingly willing to drain that word of meaning in the pursuit of geopolitical goals?”   FP Live Heather Cox Richardson: Why I’m Hopeful About DemocracyLast week, Richardson joined FP Live to discuss her new [book](, Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America, and how she remains optimistic about the future of democracy around the globe in the face of threats like a weakened press, disputed elections, and the rise of strongman leaders. Richardson answered questions from FP subscribers such as Jack Nilles, Victoria Holbrook, and more. [Watch]( their full conversation now or read the [Q&A](. How to Reboot America’s China PolicyOct. 13 | 11 a.m. EDTU.S. Rep.

Is the Conventional Wisdom on Ukraine Wrong?Oct. 17 | 11 a.m. EDTIn recent months, political analysts have bemoaned Ukraine’s slow progress in its counteroffensive against Russian forces. But retired U.S. Army Gen. David Petraeus thinks the conventional wisdom about Kyiv’s performance is premature—and possibly wrong. [Register here](. Fiona Hill on the War in UkraineOct. 26 | 11 a.m. EDTIt’s never easy to guess what Russian President Vladimir Putin might be thinking, but it’s always useful to learn how Fiona Hill views the state of play.

I think it’s very obvious that we don’t want to lose our second motherland.” —Mustafa Nayyem, head of the Ukrainian State Agency for Restoration and Infrastructure Development, the country’s nine-month-old reconstruction agency.

[Read the interview](.   Will China’s Elite Ever Rise Up? “Seldom in human history has a dictator like Xi [Jinping] managed to enrage virtually the entire elite of his country without that elite doing anything about it,” Deng Yuwen [wrote]( last year.
