A New North Star for Global Diplomacy The world has grown accustomed to the spectacle of Donald Trump's Twitter tirades, but beneath the noise lies a disturbing reality: the erosion of global leadership.
As Trump's popularity falters, a new figure has emerged on the international stage – Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. For over a decade, global diplomacy has been dictated by one man's social media musings.
