Scott Detrow: 伍德沃德的新书不仅关注耸人听闻的细节,更重要的是其背后反映的更深层次的意义,以及对拜登政府应对国际冲突和危机的策略和决策过程的深入探讨。 Bob Woodward: 新书《战争》详细描述了拜登政府国家安全团队在应对世界不同地区的两场战争中的工作,特别是对2022年秋季俄罗斯使用核武器威胁的详细报道,以及美国政府内部高层官员之间的沟通和应对措施。书中披露了美国国防部长奥斯汀与俄罗斯国防部长绍伊古之间的直接对话,警告俄罗斯不要使用核武器,以及美国政府对这一威胁的严重关切。此外,还描述了副总统哈里斯在国家安全对话中的角色,以及她在关键时刻提出的建议。 Bob Woodward: 书中还揭露了特朗普将新冠病毒检测设备送给普京,并试图掩盖此事,这暴露了其行为的严重性,以及对美国国家安全的潜在威胁。 Bob Woodward: 作者在书中结尾处表达了自己的观点,这在他之前的作品中是罕见的,并对美国政治格局的变化进行了反思。 Jake Sullivan: 如果特朗普是总统,普京现在可能已经占领基辅,因为特朗普对独裁者的喜爱以及对权力的高度集中使得他不会阻止普京。
