Effects of a new Trump presidency

Jump to:

The Republican Donald J. Trump will once again be US president. Trump had already announced during the election campaign a radical departure from current US domestic and foreign policy. The consequences for transatlantic and international relations and the ability to jointly tackle global challenges such as climate change within the international community would be serious. If the USA withdraws from international cooperation for sustainable development, this would open up new opportunities for other forces - such as China, Russia and their allied states - to exert influence. However, regardless of this outcome of the US presidential elections, European states must prepare their policies for a new geopolitical phase in global politics.

This special contains analyses of the effects of Trump's first term in office on German and international politics and ventures a look into the future of Trump 2.0.
