In this program of Issues of Contemporary politics with Dr.Brovkin I focus on the impact Trump's latest attack on Venezuela had on Latin America, Europe, Russia and Trump himself. From promises of a peace-maker to the reality of the never ending wars, trump antagonized friends and foes alike, from most Latin American countries to NATO allies and of course Russia and China. Trump managed to turn everyone into a critic or an open foe of US policies in just one year in office.
