Prof. Vijay Prashad discusses with NewsClick the Foreign Policy initiatives in the second term of Obama's Presidency. In the first term, Obama had come with huge expectations, with very liberal provisions on the table. But he could not live up to them. Prof. Prashad feels that the Obama administration is following a Rightist Foreign Policy which has a temperamental outlook.
