‘Biden Administration’s Stance Does Not Represent Americans’ Opinion,’ Says Expert

The Biden administration’s foreign policy does not show any willingness to cooperate, foreign and security policy expert Shea Bradley-Farrell told Radio Kossuth in an interview. The president of the Washington-based Counterpoint Institute, who is also a visiting scholar at the Center for Fundamental Rights in Hungary, discussed, among other things, the impact of the US ideological offensive on its relations with other states, reports Hirado.hu.

Commenting on the display of Pride flags on US embassy buildings, Shea Bradley-Farrell said it was an indication of US government policy, but the flags do not represent the majority of American people or those around the world. Recalling the results of a Pew study, she said that the majority of countries in the world do not accept homosexuality as part of morality. Yet, she added,

the US has put pressure on foreign states since the Obama era to gain cultural acceptance of the LGBTQ community.

According to the expert, the US should be in the business of protecting human rights in general, including the rights of members of the LGBTQ community. However, to instill social ideology and impose cultural acceptance on other countries is not a part of this. She also pointed out that the consequence of this behavior is that the United States is perceived in a negative light by the majority of countries where it is present, which has an alienating effect on potential allies and even friends.

Bradley-Farrell also touched on the situation in Hungary, saying that the US Ambassador here, David Pressman, had already spoken of a human rights backslide in Hungary long before his appointment was confirmed. The only reason he said this, in her opinion, was because Hungary was not allowing LGBT issues into the school curriculum, as the European Union would have wanted.

She recalled that she had visited Hungary four times and had recently lived here for two months. She highlighted that

the American public gets much of its information about Hungary from the liberal-left media, and these are mainly negative reports. This is why she believes it is important for people who have lived in Hungary for a while to say that the allegations are not true.

As she said, she herself speaks about her impressions of Hungary on several platforms to give people a different perspective, as she believes that Americans are very open to hearing the truth about other countries.

According to Bradley-Farrell, there will be more and more people who want to stand up for conservative values in different forms. On the Hungarian side, she sees it as great courage for the government to stand up for what it believes is right, because it is a good example.
