Der Einschätzung von Politico zufolge verschiebt sich mit dem Rausschmiss Stephen Bannons aus dem Beraterteam von US-Präsident Donald Trump die Balance weiter in Richtung Falken: „Bannon’s exit clears an obstacle for backers of an active U.S. foreign policy in line with recent presidencies — and is a resounding win for Bannon’s internal rival, national security adviser H.R. McMaster. […] ‘If you look at the balance of power of isolationists versus internationalists in the White House now, it seems safe to say that the pendulum has swung towards the internationalists,’ said Danielle Pletka, senior vice president for foreign and defense policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute.” (jw)
