Scott Ritter’s areas of expertise include American foreign policy, national security, arms control, the Middle East, Iran and Russia. He recently wrote “the rift between the CIA and Donald Trump…may not be such a bad thing” given that the president is “pushing a policy of reconciliation with Russia that the CIA neither supports nor is equipped to effectively advise him on.” In addition to his impeccable credentials, Ritter is an electrifying public speaker who is world-renowned for correctly insisting Iraq had no significant weapons of mass destruction when the Bush administration claimed otherwise. His eighth book,  _Deal of the Century: How Iran Blocked the West’s Road to War_, will be published in June.
