The Impact of Trump's Inauguration on Global Conflicts

The potential shift in U.S. foreign policy with Donald Trump's upcoming inauguration raises significant questions about ongoing global conflicts, particularly in Ukraine and Gaza. Both leaders, Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky, seem to be recalibrating their strategies in anticipation of Trump’s presidency, with Trump indicating a willingness to engage with Putin. Zelensky expressed optimism that Trump could facilitate peace, highlighting the urgency for both parties to end hostilities due to mounting economic pressures and high casualty rates. Given Trump's assertive stance, there are expectations that his administration might prioritize negotiations that could significantly alter the landscape of these conflicts.
