The David Hunter Perspective - 2023-04-05

Read on for today's agenda below prepared by David (thank you very much). - Retired US Diplomat to 5 different nations  David Hunter shares his knowledge, passion, interest, and experience.


1)New Scottish Leader is A Pakistani Muslim?: The 37 year old Mr. Humza Yousaf is the new 'First' Minister of Scotland, who continues pushing for Scotland's independence from the UK. He is the UK-born grandson of Pakistani immigrants, and a Muslim. He wore a Scottish plaid Kilt at his swearing in, but also took the oath in Urdu, the language of his native Pakistan.  Does he represent a new face to the Scottish independence movement?

2)Should Russia Be Allowed to Chair the UN Security Council on April 1st: Putin's so-called Russian Federation is again rotating to become chair of the UN's highest body, the Security Council. The US Ambassador to UN openly calls for Russia to be excluded from the Security Council based on it's invasion of Ukraine and violating UN principles, and Putin's being named a 'war criminal' by the International Criminal Court. But it looks like Russia is still in the top seat at the UN. How can this happen?

3)What is the Difference Between Globalism and Isolationism?: We hear calls America is being too assertive on the world stage (so claim Putin and Xi) and from inside the USA some say we should pull back from our 'global domination' and focus on our own problems at home. Is globalism an American-created problem, and should we oppose our country's continuing down that path?
