Kissinger: America needs better leaders.
In the 1960s and 1970s, Henry Kissinger, former US Secretary of State and National Security Advisor of the White House, complained about the current state of his country and its leaders.
99-year-old Henry Kissinger said in an interview with American media that the United States of America needs better leaders.
Henry Kissinger, who was the National Security Advisor of the White House from 1969 to 1975 and also served as the 56th Secretary of State, criticized the current state of this country and its leaders.
This well-known and old American figure announced in an interview with “USA Today” that America and the world need better leaders.
Henry Kissinger, when asked if he was concerned that the leaders the United States and the world needed “will not emerge in time,” answered yes. (He expressed his concern about the failure of the leaders needed by America and the world to appear on time).
This famous American figure stated during the interview that in his opinion, America and the world need “more outstanding” leaders.
In this interview, the reporter of “USA Today” referred to Henry Kissinger’s new book entitled “Leadership: 6 Studies in Global Strategy” and asked him if he sees the almost transcendent and virtuous leaders that the world requires today.
The former National Security Advisor of the White House and the former Secretary of State of the United States answered: “No (he does not see the great leaders that the world needs).” Kissinger then added one more word: “(this situation) is painful”.
In another part of this interview, he said: “If we want to be fair about the current leaders, they haven’t had this opportunity yet…but you can argue and I can argue that great leaders create this situation.”
