U.S. diplomats depart; the new Grand Egyptian Museum
About this episode
The episode discusses the forced retirement of U.S. diplomats and features a visit to the new Grand Egyptian Museum.
Senior career diplomats at the U.S. State Department are effectively being forced into retirement. It’s a loss of talent that one former diplomat calls a “unilateral disarmament”. And we visit the new Grand Egyptian Museum outside Cairo, which was more than 30 years in the making.
