Is U.S. foreign policy a scam built on corruption? Jeffrey Sachs, renowned American scholar, raises alarms about the U.S.'s foreign policies, heavily influenced by big money. With a staggering $886 billion military budget in 2022, making up almost 40 percent of global spending, what's the real impact on U.S. foreign decisions? And who really benefits?

He's not bashing US or China.He speaks the truth.. He's not paid to speak the truth.
Chinese propaganda... 😂... China sells weapons to Russia, Iran, North Korea, Hamas, anyone really. He's talking about the US destabilizing the world when China is helping Putin invade Ukraine while threatening Taiwan. Then DR. S wonder why investors are fleeing when they hear China beating the war drums ... Keep listening to Dr. S and you'll be on your way to more sanctions....
The problem is the american people listen to the View, not people like Mr Sachs.
Yep , they believe their leftist, elitist masters
I think USA politicians should wear badges of their corporate sponsors (their "bosses") on their clothes... like what NASCAR race drivers do!
Love this idea! Transparency now!
@Chinook-tj9bv Politicians are elected to enhance the peoples' lives. A mafia enhances their own lives, and Congress is nothing more than a corrupt mafia.
They would all be wearing a blue star
Excellent idea.
Soros behind them
Good report. I am a 60 year old American. I have not seen a single government promise kept since I was born.
I'm 60 also, and totally agree.
I’m not 60, but not far from it and l have seen good things. Of course I have seen bad things as well… our foreign policy needs to be adjusted. Sacs says some agreeable things but the fact that he always speaks in support of our adversaries makes him non credible. He’s just as corrupt as the politicians in my opinion it’s quite obvious. He sits here saying the same things that could be said about Russia, China and Iran. He speaks of corruption? The people in these countries have spoken out about their own governments and we communicate with their citizens now through social media. It’s ridiculous like these places aren’t corrupt with greater wealth disparities than the US. He must be for authoritarianism because he never is concerned about the citizens and just continuously bashing America on behalf of Russia & China.
We need a third political party for a different result that benefit all Americans notan only politician’s.
Well am 41 and I've seen and experience the pain that ameri has caused us minorities and they've done nothing for us
Agreed
A voice of reason. A real American patriot.
A patriot is someone who puts their country above all other concerns, who fully supports the actions of their govt believing them to be infallible, regardless of human cost. Sachs is if anything an anti-patriot, like all good people should be. Patriotism is the problem
@@ChucklesMcGurk I disagree because “believing them to be infalible” is not part of the definition. I believe a true patriot will criticise their government when needed, like Mr. Sachs is doing right here.
@@ChucklesMcGurk You are describing Slaves, not Patriots.
Well, perhaps in Your country, you are supposed to bow and obey. But America, in principle anyways, the people run the government.
I sorry you live in such a miserable place, where you're not even allowed to hold your own opinion. I guess that's why you're pro-corruption. You are Ordered to Never Question. Sad.
What a BS you are saying. Wtf, man can't you see the political situation in the USA bunch of senile and corrupt people sold out , raging senseless wars all over the world for profit! here is the catch: you and I have nothing from the profit we just pay. This man is a Patriot! And what do we have to do in Taiwan? Go mind your own business. Stop putting your nose where it doesn't belong! @@ChucklesMcGurk
listen exactly from 16:05 mark that's exactly whats wrong @@ChucklesMcGurk
What a disgraceful amount to spend on military industry
Imagine if it was spent on public transport and health and education infrastructure!
@@glazedbeachbro3926 what if spending was cut, in order to make homes, goods and services more affordable for the us citizens?
We need to spend more.
and yet the streets are filled with crime, drug addicts, highschoolers violence, gang violence, ancient infrastructure, insane media and hollywood , fanatical uni campuses, small industry and a border that is no border at all. lol, what a joke usa has become. if you dont end the grotesque american empire quickly, as you rose in the 20th century, in the 21st you will end it , falling...
What proportion of the US MIC is owned by interests of the state that already receives the majority of our aid. We argue that aid returns to fund our MIC, but that also mainly returns to that state. Thus the US has been milked into debt and dominance has been achieved by that state.
"To be an enemy of the US is dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal"

That's ironic because Deng Xiaoping himself said that those alilied to the USA are always more wealthy and have a higher standard of living, compared to those who choose to be its enemy. Remember, it is a choice.

Deeply respect to Mr. Jeffrey Sachs for his dignity, honesty and courage!
Professor Sachs is one of the few who is brave enough to speak truth to power. Many people with status like Professor Sachs would shrink and toe the line to keep their position in the pecking order.
He’s already made his money. There is no risk for him.
@user-wp2yk6gf2j Other tight lipped people made money too...at least Sachs is speaking up
@@user-wp2yk6gf2j What. you don't know what you are talking about. Many are richer than him still kowtow.
@@user-wp2yk6gf2j, he made his money by bringing his beloved neoliberalism to Russia: Economy broke down by over 50%, men's life expectancy dropped by 10 years, Babushkas were selling yesterday's newspaper for a piece of bread, girls kidnapped and exploited in the brothels of Berlin, London, Paris by the exploding Mafia. Chomskyites are luring communists into disaster by tradition.
Great achievements. Spasibo!
@@user-wp2yk6gf2jThis is not about money but about spreading the truth about American imperialism.
Thank you Jeffrey Sachs. Americans need to elect leaders who want to reduce this wasteful and destructive spending and demand better infrastructure at home.
That is the Disunited States industrial policy, so how?😂😂😂
It will never happen
Where are these leaders. There are only two sides. One lies a lot, the other one lies less than the former.
but where are those, they do not exist !!!!
@@nusaibahibraheem8183 Democracy is also known as the blame game.😂😂😂
I’m American and I don’t support Israeli actions toward genocide in Gaza. I also don’t support American arms export economic reliance. Americans are exceptional and should turn that exceptionalism toward security and true national equality.
😂😂😂😂
We need more people like him, a voice of reason.
Professor Sachs, the truth teller.❤❤❤👍👍👍👏👏👏
I recommend you see the section on him in Naomi Klein's book 'Shock Doctrine.'
He's a charlatan.
What a great interview! I feel your questions were well formed and Professor Sachs is 100% correct. Thank goodness we have some people with common sense and wants peace.
There will be no peace.
Unfortunately the people with common sense and wants peace are not in positions of power.
@@aero.lyou are absolutely correct 👍🏻
I agreed with Professor Sachs except the Israel issue.I strongly believed that hatred by the Muslim countries against Israel is the driving force.Yes,America has become very corrupted.Profesor Sachs is wrong in stating " which country is going to invade America?We are being invaded,not in war but in peace.Look at the illegals coming in thanks to Biden's policies.If this is not an invasion I don't know what is it.800 billions for the " defense" and 800 military bases= 100 billion for each base,isn't it?Plus caring for veterans,ECT.Too much.Last,the communists in south America( Venezuela)use the tactic of rationalizing food( scarcety) to keep citizens busy in looking for something to eat.Same here,but out of reach with high prices= same results,people don't protest.
Imagine that money spent for the people of the world. Mr. Sachs is very wise, intelligent and open.
Since when did US spend its money on other? Even when it did, there was a condition...that you are to be its client state!!!
@@yaphonghor4409 That is the point. Money is being spent to make more money. The military industrial complex doesn't care about any country nor citizens. If all those trillions would go towards helping people in the need, we could have a much better world.
@@nickstoic2944 US will not be kind enough to part its money to voluntarily aid others! Even when it did, there would be tight conditions, much like you have to be slaves or sacrifice national interest!!!
Absolutely. I'm from the Uk and we are a big part of the problem also obviously.. we started it all.
Not you, but your forefathers. But noble of you to be aware of it. Respect.
Prof. Sachs is an honest,great person..!!!
God bless Prof Sachs ❤ the voice of reason
Traitor
The truth is always the voice of reasoning.
@@identification133 he's a treasonous traitor and I'm hoping that my government will deal with him swiftly.
This is what happens when your government has been hijacked by special interest groups
Money. Is. the
Driving force.
They want more money!
If only majority of the Americans see things like Jeffrey Sachs. Unfortunately
We are anti-china and we hate Jeffrey Sachs.
What else but big money could be behind such a disasterous foreign policy. Sschs is spot on.
Thank you for having Prof Sachs. He is always a voice of truth and reason. Great interview.
Nothing will change though. The average American isn't very bright. They sit on their couch all day, eat potato chips and watch CNN/Fox News. They lap up whatever is fed to them.
At 66 yrs old I have known and constantly seen all prof Sachs is saying. As a Veteran I am disgusted and embarrassed to call myself an American.
The same here, I really want to be proud of Australia, although I only live here but will never call it home... its foreign policy is the same as we are 51 state of America, disgusting... sending bombs and giving support to Israel is just unacceptable and the PM and FM should be jailed because work against peoples sentiments...
This woman is saying exactly what I have been censored for many times!!!! She is spot on about everything 👌!!!
What a great interview!!! Thanks for having Jeffrey Sachs on.
Read Naomi Klein's Shock Doctrine book. He's a charlatan.
So the Chinses Communist dictatorship doesn't like the US? 😅
this is what everybody should be talking about
Diplomacy....a lost art replaced by selfish and ignorant politicians!
Sadly, absolutely true. And I am an American born and raised here. We are in the Late Empire phase of a civilization, and it ain't pretty.
Agree with JS....unfortunately big money talks louder than human beings are worth😢
this information been known for years and coming from america itself, but only Jeffrey Sachs and some couple of independent journalists chooses to not stay ignorant about it.
How could anyone not see this. It's so obvious. America starts wars equips them and finances them. Korea, Vietnam, the list is endless. It's a gravy train.
This is the most important video I have seen in a long, long time. Jeffrey Sachs is a truly great humanitarian thinker!
It's not defense spending. It's offense.
Tell this to CNBC
Or to Bloomberg . They are can more extreme..
Well said.. multipolar world is the solution for today human civilization. Leaders must focus on world citizen prosperity and peace..

Great interview. Refreshing to see truth on display. Professor Sachs is a courageous man of which the world needs more of.
He's a traitor.
No you are the traitor to the American people
How I wish there were more such reasonable voices in the United States!
This is an accurate analysis of the situation. And it is up to the American people to reverse the situation and restore the constitutional republic such that it serves them and not the terrible financial criminal and war industry.
I agree that the American people must reverse the situation. I can't see the system correcting itself.

Great to invite prof Sachs, great guy, honest
This is overdue and absolutely true
Jeffrey Sachs is a saint, I can't imagine the courage it takes to speak true to power against these institutions. Peace is the only solution. We need a policy where corporation is the end game. The computer age has connected people of the world, why can't we communicate? Thank You for having Mr. Sachs on, he has an important message, I hope it gets though.
He doesn't say anything he doesn't even really stay in the US and when he does come out he's hidden and protected because if we citizens see this old man, well you know the answer to that.
There absolutely will be no peace.
corporation ? I think you mean Cooperation.

Violence has to stop imidiatly. If we want to save the planet from disaster, we should make friends and treat each other like we want to be treated ourselves.

*The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. Success is a state of mind.Creating wealth entails establishing positive routines, such as consistently setting aside funds at regular intervals for sound investments. Financial management is a vital subject that many avoid, often leading to future regrets.*
Honestly speaking, investing is a smart way to secure your family's future, grow your wealth, and stay ahead of inflation.
Things are getting worse these days, if you don't find a way to multiply your income, you might wake up one day to realize you did not mean well for your family
My major concern now is how can we generate more revenue during quantitative times? I can’t afford to see all my savings crumble to dust.
The cost of living is making people go into different businesses anyways, but my problem is that the rate at which money gets finished on little purchases is so surprising.
That's true

HAVING A 34 TRILLION DOLLAR DEBT AND AN INTEREST RATE OF OVER 1 TRILLION A YEAR IS INSANE.WHAT MAKES THIS WORSE IS NATIONS ARE NOT BUYING OUR BONDS AND DO NOT WANT OUR INFLATION. WHEN SHIT HIT THE FENCE THE AVERAGE AMERICAN WILL FINALLY GET THE MESSAGE THAT LIFE IS ABOUT CAUSE AND EFFECTS. WHEN THE DOLLAR IS NO LONGER THE ONLY GLOBAL RESERVE CURRRENCY AND POVERTY BECOME THE NORM, WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WILL WAKE UP.
"To late"" Came the cry.
The problem is that Americans are poorly educated, ill-informed by the corporate media and worst of all, they think it all a movie.
Why not wake up before it happens.
The problem with the nation is greed. The teachers want more control and benefits. But the learning outcome is poor. The politician want more power. But with wasteful spending. The defense industry wants to sell more weapons. But with more wars. And the Bankers want to screw the people. And they have largely succeeded. Donald Trump is America's last hope. He is unsophisticated, is not perfect, a bit divisive, but loves his nation, loves Whites and Blacks alike, and believes in personal freedom and liberty. He is not the ideal candidate, but the alternative is worst. Trump believes in personal freedom which is the true American spirit. He should work with China and tone down his attacks against that nation as they are not the cause of America's problems.
Don’t worry it won’t happen in a day but over the years, only our next generation will feel the adverse effects
Liu Xin you are a great interviewer, thank you!

At last someone in USA has shown the guts to speak the truth. He needs to be careful or else the MIC may try to silence him.

Sachs' "benign wisdom" is what nearly wrecked Russia in the 1990s.
It makes me laugh 🤣
Well done. Excellent.
Great video. You will never see " western mainstream media " interview Mr. Sachs..
Good to see Prof. Sachs on CGTN.
The ignominious departure from Afghanistan, the debacle in Ukraine, an inability to manage Israel in Gaza and now an opened ended war in Yemen has the potential of causing the US's global empire to unravel. This is the result of corrupt leadership, a complete lack of diplomacy and an industry that has the incentive for the creation of war...
I'm not sure that they are unable to manage Israel. They can stop the war by stopping the supply of weapons, if they really want to.

Nothing and absolutely no one will take down the United States no matter how much you believe it.
Jeffrey was very consistent for decades, even since the time he was sent off to Russia after USSR collapsed to help them with economy
'help'. What an interesting take!
Help with their economy wtf? He destroyed Russia with the shock doctrine/theory. Russian life expectancy dropped by something like 10 years after he "helped" their economy.
He is correct here and I agree with him but his history with Russia is disgusting and something that will forever stain him.
@@kwakkers68 The USA asked for his expertise but did nothing with it with respect to Russia as the goal was to divide and conquer. But then Putin showed up and fixed it all.

Thanks to Professor Sachs for his analysis explaining the reasons for the USA moving from war to war which are very clear: big business. Coming from a Columbia’s professor gives credibility to the statement. Unfortunately there is not options offered in the short term.
Refreshing to see Jeffrey being allowed to speak his mind....
..and their media is complicit too... true journalism is non existent
This is my idea of a legitimate presidential candidate. He actually wants peace! God bless this man.🙏🙂
Great interview. Tragically, we Westerners need to seek out international sources. Our media is comprised. This type of conversation desperately needs to occur in the USA. There is no public outcry because the public is ignorant.
Truth. You will get a more balanced and realistic view of currant affairs.
comprised ? I think you mean compromised.
She asks great questions.
Instead of calling it “Defence spending”, it’s a market theme to sell the idea of conquer n rule. Might consider re-labelling that to “Aggression Budget”.
At the time of WW2 the US Defence Secretary was called The Secretary of State for War.
FACTS! Great discussion. Professor Sachs speaks with a breadth of fresh air. Indeed, one of the few that speaks truth to power.
America is in urgent need of regime change so that it will be more constructive to world peace, global climate, and human right.
Too late
Pakistan knows very well how destructive US policy has been in the region. The US doesn’t listen to any advice even from allies like pakistan. The US needs to look at how China and pakistan cooperate with each other and learn. ❤
America's hegemony would have ended long ago if it weren't so fiercely supported by non- white people! White worship is a big problem!
Pakistan is in the USAs pocket
Pakistan is China’s most important partner. We need to work together to promote peace and prosperity for our people.
The USA has no allies. It has only underlings and slaves.

But a true statement
And debating about pronouns 😂
Bread and Circuses.
The biggest business of US is arms sales. The main objective of the US government, Congress and Senate is to profit the arms companies. There is no such thing as a waste of money so long as arms are concerned. The more money is wasted the better because this means the arms companies are making tons of money. See how many millions of tons of weapons are left in Afghanistan after the American soldiers ran away. The US government is not worried about those weapons because the arms companies have already profited from those weapons.
It’s why the US leadership will rarely ever enact common sense gun legislation, arms are seen as powerful and essential, more than children’s lives domestic and abroad
Healthcare is bigger now.
Oh, and one more thing further to my comments below, the public couldn’t care less about loss of life, they care about money. That’s why no one protests about the loss of life in Ukraine, but the public are on the streets when their subsidies and benefits come under attack, like in Germany, France, Netherlands, Poland! The Western public loves virtue signalling, but has no morality if it costs them money.
Wait till Muslims take over Europe
We are anti-china for some reason you try to separate us from that but it's the truth.
You mention about loss of lives in Ukraine,,BUT NO MENTION OF THE GENOCIDE TAKING PLACE IN PALESTINE BY THE EVIL JEWISH STATE OF ISRAEL.
Sir Sachs is a True patriot..the u.s public needs to wakeup and protest against it!!
If the United States cannot own the markets and production of other countries, then the next action is to raze Their manufacturing capabilities to the ground.
call it what it is the war department. nothing to do with defence.
It doesn't really matter what the citizens say or want, the government will do what it wants. Tictoc is rife with calls for revolution.
Sorry to tell you but we're not leftist in the United States
Good questions from the interviewer. She asked for concrete examples. Sachs gave a reasonable answer but it does not go far enough. We need politicians to be named and what their connections are with whom. For example we know Cheney was on the board of Halliburton and Freeport McMoran (connected to the exploitationary Javanese regime in Papua). Where are the Biden administration and Congressional officials connected? For sure Lindsay Graham is connected somewhere. But it is not only the miltary-industrial complex. It is also the financial one. Goldman Sachs and various equity firms have a huge stake in this as well. This needs to be made clear.
As an American, the US needs to be humbled and it's coming - very, very soon!
God bless you G.S.👍
Good questions … good, substantial interview 👍
