I agree with everything that William Sterr stated in his letter to the editor “Biden is a disappointment” (Our Readers’ Views, July 16), but today I’m addressing only the military expansion. It’s too bad the word “diplomacy” has fallen out of the American vocabulary. The provocative actions of the U.S. government toward Russia and China have led to a much more dangerous world. For an alternative view of the current situation, I suggest reading articles by Andrew Basevich, president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft.
