Scott talks with journalist Michael Tracey about the Munich Security Conference which he attended earlier this month. Tracey gives an overview of who was at the conference, who was disinvited and what the overall tone felt like. They then dig into some of the more disturbing things Tracey observed such as calls for more regime change and PR stunts to hamper diplomatic prospects between the West and China.

- “Don’t Fear Putin’s Demise” (Foreign Affairs)
- “Why War Pledges for Ukraine Fell Flat in Munich” (Defense One)
- 2022 NATO Strategic Concept
