Summary
Dr. Paolo Urio discusses the roots of American Empire, how the U.S. has always been an ‘aristocratic republic,’ and how since inception it has used bully and provocation tactics, planning to conquer both the northern and southern continent, which demonstrates the essence of U.S. foreign policy. Washington lacks the capacity to read the intentions of the other side and how America’s position in the international system has long since declined. BRICS and initiatives like Belt & Road will soon surpass American dominance and be able to attract other countries seeking to escape U.S. Empire. Dr. Urio suggests that historically China never wanted to conquer the world. In the new multipolar world, the U.S. will not go away, but it will need to change the way it manages its international relations.

| 0:11.1 | for senior Chinese public officials on behalf of the Swiss government, which gave him access |
| 0:15.9 | to parties officials, universities, and party schools. He's also the author of America and the China |
| 0:22.1 | threat from the end of history to the end of empire. Bonjourno, Professor Urio. |
| 0:27.3 | Grazie for joining the broadcast. How are you doing? Fine. Fine. Thank you very much. Thank you. |
| 0:32.5 | All right. I just finished reading your excellent book from the publisher Clarity Press. |
| 0:39.5 | I think I have become their unofficial podcaster now. |

| 0:50.6 | So that's at least half a dozen now. |
| 0:54.9 | So there's a lot in your book. |
| 0:57.1 | And it begins discussing the goals of U.S. foreign policy, which is basically the purpose |
| 1:06.3 | is basically to maintain the American status of so great power to which I will add, you know, |
| 1:13.0 | full spectrum dominance, like basically to take over the entire planet. So you talk about, |

| 1:34.8 | Okay. Okay. Yes. I was practically forced to study the history of the U.S US because I was interested in China. |
| 1:47.0 | So you cannot speak about China if you don't at the same time speak about first the European |
| 1:53.0 | powers in the 19th century and then the United States, of course. |
| 1:57.0 | So I think you must go back to the origins of the American ideology, which developed |
