"The minister is not noted for his breadth of vision."
I wonder what this 'breadth of vision' means.
His horizons are not broad?

Thank you.

The minister is noted for his lack of depth in his ability to perceive by the imagination or clear thinking.

Yes, his horizons are narrow.

Doesn't "vision" here refer to perspective or foresight?
