US military intervention in certain situations can sometimes change things for the better, but this often leads to big problems. About it November 5, said President Barack Obama in an interview with TV channel HBO.
– In the world when bad things happen, our national instinct tells us to act. Sometimes our intervention helps to change something, but unintended consequences often cause even greater problems, he said.
According to him, the decision to use military force is one of the main challenges for any President. Assistance to the armed forces needed to protect U.S. residents from organizations such as “al-Qaeda” * or “Islamic state” **, but if it is “about maintaining the foundations of international order, it is important to have alliances and work in the international arena”. Barack Obama also noted that the United States “doing a lot of good in the world”, sometimes “imperfect and inefficient, but we have something to be proud of”.
We will remind, in April Obama spoke about the mistakes the US in forecasting the situation in Libya.
On the eve of the interview with Obama HBO the candidate in US presidents from Republican party, Donald trump, who often criticizes the policies of the current us leader said that Washington should “cease to overthrow the regime” and to engage in the fight against ISIS and their own security. He promised to use military force, “as vital to the security of the country”. – We cease to try to build foreign democracy to overthrow the regime and mindlessly intervene in situations which are not eligible to participate. We want to make this country stronger and protect her, — said trump.
What explains the statements of Barack Obama on the eve of the US presidential elections, which often run counter to the more militant rhetoric of the Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton? Barack Obama did not send troops to Syria, with the exception of certain groups of special forces operating in Syrian Kurdistan.
