United States: Trump’s Inauguration Followed by Controversial Executive Orders

Description: The 47th President of the United States after being sworn into office has issued plenty of controversial statements followed by the signing of questionable executive orders. His speech envisaged America’s future endeavors to be hostile towards practically the entire world. He signed executive orders tackling the migration crisis, reinstated Cuba as a state – sponsor of terrorism, declared national energy emergency and emergency on the south border with Mexico, fired 50 national security executives allegedly related to the investigation into Hunter Biden’s ties with Russia and withdrew the United States from the World Health Organization and the Paris Climate Agreement with a promise to reinstate US energy independence. Trump also backtracked most of ex – President Biden’s executive orders such as the sanctions regarding the illegal settlers in the West Bank.

 

Impact: Trump’s executive orders although not final, picture an uncertain global future as he returned to implementing the conservative and yet assertive stance which he envisioned for the US in the future. The signed executive orders indicate on a potential volatile and unilateral foreign policy the US President tries to implement, which in turn could possibly corrupt relations with allies on all socio – economic levels in a period of time when conflicts are revamped globally, and superpowers like China and Russia would seek to exploit the stance the Trump administration is focusing on. Trump’s executive orders revert the US’ global role which in a mid to a long – term period of time could inflict irreparable global implications as the US is still considered to be the global security, economic and military bloodstream.
