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.

    Nazis were weak when they attacked Czechoslovakia and then Poland.

        The argument was that Russia has no chance against Poland, because how it is doing on Ukraine.

        But it won’t be Russia vs Poland it will be Russia + Ukraine + (whatever else putin gets on the way).

        He also won’t have any problem sending Ukrainians to die fighting with Poles.
