Biden reflects on foreign policy achievements as Trump signals return to disruption

President Joe Biden's foreign policy aimed to restore alliances strained by Donald Trump's "America First" approach. As he prepares to leave office, Biden emphasizes his administration's efforts to strengthen U.S. credibility globally, despite facing significant challenges. Biden's presidency was marked by crises, including the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan and Russia's invasion of Ukraine. While he rallied support for Ukraine, critics argue he was slow to provide advanced weaponry, a point Trump has highlighted in his campaign. In the Middle East, Biden has supported Israel amid ongoing conflict, but his relationship with Israeli leadership has been strained due to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. As Biden's term ends, both administrations are focused on securing a hostage deal with Hamas.
