New York PostAUG 2021
The Spin
Right narrative
Biden's poor diplomacy has caused rifts with allies. This commitment to the Quad may cause further damage, as AUKUS did to relations between the U.S. and France.
Left narrative
Coordination with Japan gives the U.S. better opportunities to tackle climate change, COVID-19 and other pressing issues whilst consolidating the alliance against China's global influence.
