Trump's election win signals shift in U.S. foreign policy and alliances

Donald Trump’s recent election win signals a shift in U.S. foreign policy, moving away from traditional alliances. European leaders are now emphasizing self-reliance, with France's Macron stating that Europe must not rely on American security. Trump's approach may lead to a more unpredictable U.S. role globally, with potential changes in support for NATO and allies like Ukraine and Taiwan. His past criticisms of these alliances have prompted European nations to bolster their own defenses. The geopolitical landscape has also evolved, with Russia, China, and Iran strengthening ties. Trump's previous calls to withdraw U.S. forces from conflict zones may continue, affecting America's military presence in the Middle East and beyond.
