Tough bargains and bold threats: 100 days of Trump’s transactional foreign policy

One hundred days in its new administration, president Donald Trump They cancel negotiations with allies and enemies around the world, and experts say one is sure: all this is a transaction.

The days have passed when they could now be drawn to throw their force around the world exclusively on behalf of defense or spreading democracy. Global leaders learn to speak a new language with American leadership, which is less related to ideology, and more about their interests use American interests.

“There are many more transaction engagements, and I don’t think we are ideologically based, political decisions that were a kind of sign of the biden administration,” said Gregg Roman, executive director Middle East Forum.

Here’s a rounding of how Trump has changed US foreign policy since he took up his duty:

Negotiating a Treaty of Nuclear Iran’s Prevention

Former president Joe Biden He played with the revival of a nuclear agreement with Iran and criticized Trump’s decision to get the US out of the common comprehensive action plan of the 2015 action, but his administration has progressed a little in serious negotiations.

Trump has now expressed interest in the new nuclear agreement. He told Israel that they would not have arrived in the attack on Iran now until diplomatic negotiations were played.

While Trump’s team met with Iran’s colleagues this weekend in Oman on the second round of nuclear conversations, he posted another threat: if negotiations where they are far, now they would not draw Israel to war with Iran But it will be “run the package”.

Taking Yemeni Houthis head

An offensive campaign against Yemeni terrorists Houthhi launched six weeks ago More than 800 goals And it cost almost one billion dollars-long deviation from a retaliation from Tit-For-Tat-Tat seen under the Administration of Biden, when Houthis attacked US naval ships and western commercial vessels.

“Biden continued the retaliation policy: if you hit us, we will hit you, “the novel said.” What Trump tries to do is what I call the soling Earth’s strategy. If you dare to challenge US military superiority or ability to spend free trade to the bottom or through the Aden Bay, the Bay of Yemen, the Red Sea, Suez … We will try to end your ability to plan a war in the United States in her interests. “

We are killed by strikes by hundreds of Houthhi fighters, affected by over 800 Red Sea goals: Central Command

From the financing of Ukraine ‘as long as’ to the request of a negotiating settlement

While Biden promised that he would now stand by Ukraine “as long as” in the war against Russia, Trump expressed his desire to get closer to the war, promising that he could end the war on the “first day of his presidency”.

One hundred days, the war is not over. Negotiations are ongoing, and Trump frustrated between the Ukrainian President of Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

While Putin continues to hit even the civilian regions of Ukraine, Trump on Saturday asked if the Russian leader really wanted peace or me “tape”.

He again questioned whether he would need to slap “secondary sanctions” on nations operating with Russia to get their war coffers starve.

Russia offered a three -day truck on Monday from May 8 to May 10, but the White House was not satisfied. Caroline Leavitt secretary said Trump wanted a “permanent truce”.

On Saturday, Trump met face to face with Zelenskyy in Rome, for the first time since their infamous oval office spat in February after scoring Zelenskyy’s rejection of his peace suggestion, one that would officially cow crime Russians.

Strategic Download: New Pressures for Greenland, Panama

Monroe doctrine is coming back, analysts say, and Trump wants Greenland and a Panaman channel under the control of the USA.

The proposals have attracted shock all over the world, but at least in Panama, Trump’s brave words have encouraged the proposal to offer US “first and free” passage for their warships, said Defense Minister Hegsetth earlier this month. She also encouraged the proposed sale of two ports of the Hong Kong CK Hutchison port in Blackkrock based in the United States, although the job was delayed by Chinese regulatory and political supervision.

The efforts to achieve Greenland proved to be less successful. A difficult conversation against Denmark and his ownership of Greenland enhanced tension with Ally Ally, and Greenland’s leadership expressed little interest in becoming part of the US

However, Trump called on the threat of Russia and China the increasing Arctic military capacity – the shortest range of a rocket traveling from Russia to the US would be through the territory of Icy Iceland. Trump is also interested in the rare potential of excavation of the land of a huge part of the country.

Allies reinforce for their own defense

Trump’s threats that they will withdraw from the NATO Alliance – or refuse to come to the defense of allies who do not contribute enough military spending – left nations around the world, planning a unpredictable state that they would have to defend themselves without American help.

The European Union has announced a plan for its countries to spend $ 840 billion to “reconcile Europe” after Trump stopped all assistance from Ukraine in March.

Countries such as Spain, Belgium and Sweden have announced plans to increase the cost of defense this year to fulfill the target goal of NATO, while the eastern European countries near the Russian border, including Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Poland, announced plans to increase the cost of defense at about 5%.

Punishment of China for unjust trade practice

The concern about the Chinese hegemonic ambitions bridges the partisan division, but the White House of Biden has never considered such drastic measures as 145% of tariffs.

Trump said that the goal of tariff was and restore American production after a decade of production at sea and punish China for intellectual ownership, a huge trade imbalance and a fentanil that was from China passing to the United States. The impetus for free trade in the early 2000s, he misleading liberal trade policies, brought democratic values ​​in Chinese Borders.

Trump insisted that President Xi Jinping wanted to reduce his contract to lower the sublime tariffs, even when China rejected the prospects for conversations.

It is unclear what real concessions can now be able to get out of the agreement, perhaps promising to buy more agricultural products, fuel or other special goods.

For the time being, steep tariffs have remained, and China is suffocated by American supplies of critical minerals, which could suffocate deep problems with daily electronics, electric vehicles and defense equipment.
