Vivek Ramaswamy, one of many candidates for the Republican Party nomination has burst onto the scene in recent weeks, gracing even the timelines of parents who usually don’t observe American politics. Ramaswamy, who’s solely 38, graduated from Harvard with a bachelor’s diploma in biology and earned a JD from Yale. He started his profession as an funding banker, and went on to founding a biotech firm. His present internet price is pegged at $950 million by Forbes.

In current weeks, Ramaswamy has hit the information for varied issues: rebutting a CNN anchor over his 9/11 feedback, getting Tucker Carlson to name him certainly one of “best versed in policy”, getting Elon Musk’s approval and even playing topless tennis to prep for the primary GOP debate.

His views on Russia, India and China have been significantly insightful to many America watchers.

Speaking on the Nixon Library on August 17, he weighed in on varied sizzling potato subjects together with enhancing relations with India to counter China, blocking mid-Eastern oil entry to Beijing and extra.

Here are some fascinating excerpts from his handle:

On Russia-China Coupling

Calling the Russia-China Alliance the “biggest military threat” that the United States faces, he stated that he’d finish the Ukraine on phrases that “require Vladimir Putin to exit his military alliance with China”. He said: “Putin is the new Mao, and while we have a foreign policy establishment in both parties, including Biden, who tries to supplicate to China to get Xi Jinping to drop Vladimir Putin, what we really need to be doing is getting Vladimir Putin to drop Xi Jinping.”

On relationship with New Delhi

He argued that as a part of pulling Russia other than China, he’d renew dedication to the partnership with India.

He stated: “The number one thing we can actually do to deter Xi Jinping from going after Taiwan while avoiding war, is pull Russia apart from China. Combined with that, a renewed commitment to our partnership that we may expand with India. Hard commitments to close the Andaman Sea and block the Malacca Strait if required, in the position of potential conflict arising around Taiwan. India would happily do that if we gave them a trade deal that looked similar to what we have already with Chile or Australia. And I’m not just saying that because my name is Vivek freaking Ramaswamy here, okay?”

He further added that America and India had a “relationship of mistrust” because Washington hadn’t had a “trust-based dialogue” between the two countries.

He said: “In fact, part of the reason that we have a relationship of mistrust, I would say a relationship of trust with India that could leave room for improvement, is that we haven’t had the kind of trust-based dialogue between our two countries. And so, you know what? If I’m not gonna get that done by the end of my first term, I would consider that a personal failure on an ethnic count.”

Exporting the Second Amendment

Meanwhile, reiterating his belief about using Taiwan as a deterrence he argued the America’s Second Amendment (A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed) ought to be exported.

He said: “Let’s turn our Second Amendment into an export. That’s what American exceptionalism is about. Leave it to Taiwan to adopt a Second Amendment of its own. Put a gun in every Taiwanese household. Train them how to use it. That’s how you turn Taiwan into a porcupine. This is how you deter China.”

On a new American Revolution

Promising to break down “partisan walls”, he promised “revolution” instead of “incremental reform”.

He said: “I stand on the side of revolution. And so, I’m not gonna go in and tinker around the edges. And, yeah, I can say in a tough guy voice, “I’m gonna get in there and fire (FBI Director) Christopher Wray. Well, that sounds good. That’s fine. But, you know, James Comey, Christopher Wray, potato, potahto, you know? We need to get in there and shut the darn thing down. The J. Edgar Hoover building of the FBI, auction it off. We don’t need it anymore. We cannot reform these bureaucracies. They’re unreformable. This is Thomas Hobbes stuff. This is the modern Leviathan, okay?”

He added that he’d channel Nixon’s (and Trump’s) scepticism of the bureaucracy of the federal government. He said: “But see, we can’t just roll that log over and see what crawls out, right? You strike the swamp, the swamp strikes back. If you’re gonna roll that log over, you better be ready to bring the pesticide. And that is what I’m bringing to Washington, D.C. We have to shut it down. That is how we revive this nation. We stand not for victimhood. We stand for victory.”
