Nikki Haley&#8217;s\u2062 Foreign Policy\u2063 Expertise Shines in Republican Debate<\/h2>\n<p>Former South Carolina Gov. \u200cNikki\u200d Haley&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/4-hostile-regimes-testing-joe-biden-during-his-first-months-in-office\/\" title=\"4 Hostile Regimes Testing Joe Biden During His First Months In Office\">foreign policy chops<\/a> have \u2063come into focus after she sparred with Republican \u2062opponent Vivek\u200c Ramaswamy during Wednesday&#8217;s Republican debate in Milwaukee.<\/p>\n<p>Haley, who is also the former\u200b ambassador to\u2064 the United Nations, clashed with political newcomer\u2063 Ramaswamy on \u200dhandling \u2063Chinese aggression, a focal\u2063 part of her 2024 presidential \u200bcampaign,\u200d and aiding Ukraine \u200cin its fight with Russia.<\/p>\n<h3>Choosing Friends Over Murderers<\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;He wants\u2063 to hand Ukraine to Russia, he wants to let China eat Taiwan, he wants to \u200cgo \u2062and stop \u200dfunding Israel,&#8221;\u200b Haley \u2063said of Ramaswamy. &#8220;You don&#8217;t do that to friends. What you do instead is you have the backs of your friends.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Haley later told\u2063 Ramaswamy: &#8220;Under your leadership, you will\u2064 make \u200dAmerica less safe. You have no <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nikki-haley-at-rjc-biden-admin-cant-be-trusted-to-stop-iran-nuclear-threat\/\" title=\"Nikki Haley at RJC: Biden Admin Can\u2019t Be Trusted to Stop Iran Nuclear Threat\">foreign policy experience<\/a>, and it shows.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Strong\u2064 Foreign Policy Credentials<\/h3>\n<p>Her performance at\u200d the debate\u200c follows her focus on foreign policy along the campaign trail. Haley evoked the \u2063late British\u200c Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher during \u200cher time on\u200d the debate stage, and the\u200d former governor and former\u200b ambassador has flouted \u2064her strong foreign policy and leadership \u2062credentials as\u2064 one of \u200bthe \u200conly candidates \u200bprepared\u2062 to fight against \u200bChina.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;This is exactly why Margaret Thatcher said, &#8216;If you want something said,\u2062 ask a\u200b man. If \u200dyou want something done, ask a \u2064woman,'&#8221; Haley said \u200bduring the \u2064debate.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Taking a Stand Against China<\/h3>\n<p>When it\u200b comes\u2062 to dealing with China domestically, Haley plans to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ban all propaganda centers \u2064and eliminate federal funding \u200dfor universities \u200dthat take Chinese money, forcing universities to choose \u2063between\u2062 the United\u2063 States \u2062and China.<\/li>\n<li>Prevent China from buying more U.S.\u2062 land and force\u2063 the country\u200b to sell what \u200cit already \u200cowns.<\/li>\n<li>Ban all lobbying from Chinese companies, Beijing, and ban congress members from lobbying on China&#8217;s behalf.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Haley additionally called for Congress to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nikki-haley-debate-performance-highlights-campaign-focus-on-foreign-policy\/\" title=\"Nikki Haley's debate performance emphasizes campaign's foreign policy focus.\">revoke normal trade relations<\/a> with China if its role in the illegal flow of fentanyl into the U.S. does not stop.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve \u200ctried sanctions, but \u200bthey&#8217;re not working,&#8221; Haley \u200dsaid of the U.S. response so far in June.\u200c &#8220;We must ratchet up the pressure. \u2064As president, I will push\u200b Congress\u200c to \u2062<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/haley-talks-tough-on-beijing-in-major-foreign-policy-speech\/\" title=\"Haley's bold stance on Beijing in significant foreign policy speech.\">revoke permanent normal trade relations<\/a> until the flow of fentanyl ends.\u2064 If China wants to start normal trade again, it has to stop killing Americans.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The former ambassador also outlined plans to combat Beijing militarily, which includes strengthening ties with U.S. allies \u200dthat are closer geographically \u2063to \u200dChina, such\u2063 as\u200d South Korea, \u200bJapan, Australia, and the Philippines. She also \u2064plans to\u200c aid Taiwan by giving the\u2063 island nation whatever it needs to defend itself against Chinese \u2063aggression. Haley is also for helping Ukraine defeat \u200bRussia\u2064 in their war because a\u200d Russian loss would be \u2062a blow to China&#8217;s power.<\/p>\n<h3>Consistent Stance Against China<\/h3>\n<p>Haley&#8217;s resistance \u200dagainst China is not \u2063new to the 2024 election cycle. Her vocal \u200bstance against the communist\u2063 regime\u2064 in China \u2062dates \u200cback to the Trump administration, including calling \u200dfor the world to wake\u2064 up to China&#8217;s growing power \u2063in a speech in 2019. She also called\u200c for a boycott \u200cof the Beijing Olympics in 2020.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Communist China is the greatest threat to American security and\u2063 prosperity today,&#8221; Haley&#8217;s spokesman Ken Farnaso told the Washington Examiner. &#8220;Wednesday night&#8217;s debate showed that Nikki is the tough \u200dleader our country needs to \u2064stand up for America and stand up to our enemies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Despite her strong performance in the\u2063 Republican debate, including when it comes to foreign\u200b policy,\u200c the former governor still\u2063 has an uphill battle in\u200b securing the\u2063 nomination, trailing \u200bformer President\u2062 Donald Trump, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), former Vice President Mike Pence, and \u200cRamaswamy in the\u200b polls.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO \u200cREAD MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nikki Haley, former South Carolina Governor and UN Ambassador, showcased her foreign policy expertise in a clash with Republican rival Vivek Ramaswamy during the Milwaukee debate.
