Trump's Election Spurs Global Policy Shifts

With Donald Trump's election victory, U.S. foreign policy is set for a significant shift, echoing his first term's trade war with China and skepticism toward multilateralism. Trump aims to end the Ukraine war swiftly but lacks a detailed plan, while his approach to the Middle East remains unclear. His administration is expected to appoint loyalists, such as Lee Zeldin for the EPA, and focus on reshaping the Pentagon. Concerns arise regarding the implications of Trump's policies on countries like the Philippines, which could face economic challenges due to potential U.S. tariffs. Meanwhile, the international order is experiencing significant changes, with Asia emerging as a new center of global economic and geopolitical influence. As the global landscape evolves, developing countries are gaining strategic importance, reshaping international dynamics.
