Foreign Policy ProvCast

Providence Deputy Editor Mark Melton speaks with Matt Gobush about the Obama doctrine and a concept he calls "Moral Multilateralism". In the Spring 2016 issue of Providence's print edition, Gobush wrote about this idea and what implications it would have for America's foreign policy. A link to this article is provided on the podcast page, which can be found at ProvidenceMag.com/podcast. There is also a link to an article from the same issue by Providence's managing editor Marc LiVecche, who is more critical of Obama's foreign policy than Gobush.

In this episode we will speak with Olivia Enos from the Heritage Foundation about different North Korea human rights issues—including North Koreans being trafficked through China, religious persecution, and other violations. We'll also talk about the implications of North and South Korea reuniting, and what the United States can do to prepare for this possibility. Olivia is a research associate in the Asian Studies Center at The Heritage Foundation who specializes in human rights and transnational criminal issues—including human and drug trafficking, religious freedom, and other social and humanitarian challenges in Asia. Previously, she has written in Providence about Syrian refugees in Lebanon, and how Lebanese Christians have helped them there.
