Bernie has made it clear for a long time that he is much more concerned with this country and its people than he is about our relations with foreign countries. I think that is a good thing, but that does not mean one should disregard foreign policy.
Who knows, maybe Bernie is following George Washington's philosophy regarding "honest friendship with all nations; entangling alliances with none."
Our aggressive and arrogant style of "foreign relations" over the last few decades has done nothing but make matters worse, as half the world hates our guts.

If Trump gave these kind of answers this would be the lead on SNL, Comedy Central, MSNBC, etc.
