Elbridge Colby on why America must pivot from Ukraine to Taiwan

<p>The war in Ukraine is only bogging America down, says Elbridge Colby, a former national security adviser to the Trump administration. On this episode of Americano, Colby tells host Freddy Gray why the US should – and likely will – reduce its support to Ukraine and Europe, to focus on the increasing threat China poses over Taiwan. Europe, he says, can pick up the slack on its own continent. Colby has been tipped to become Trump's national security adviser should he win in November this year.</p><p> </p><p> Produced by Cindy Yu and Patrick Gibbons.</p><p>Become a <em>Spectator </em>subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.
