Summary
Donald Trump’s return to the White House signals a shift toward “America First” foreign policies, emphasizing non-interventionism and trade protectionism.
Trump has vowed to end the Russia-Ukraine war “in a day” through negotiation, though critics argue his approach may weaken Ukraine’s position.
In the Middle East, he promises to bring “peace,” likely reverting to pro-Israel policies and a hard line on Iran, which could further destabilize the region.
On China, Trump may re-escalate trade tensions and take a tough stance on Taiwan by threatening severe tariffs to deter Chinese aggression.
The EU could easily take on Russia militarily even if the latter weren’t already neck-deep in Ukraine.
