Trump’s Global Strategy: Tensions with Zelensky, Middle East Solutions

Trump’s international relations strategy remains focused on securing U.S. interests, particularly with North Korea and Russia, where his leadership is praised by allies. Reflecting on the past four years, Trump argues that the 2020 election's results have had global consequences, from the escalation of Hamas attacks to Russia’s actions in Ukraine. As tensions rise, Trump remains cautious of Zelensky, who is trying to make amends with Trump by offering access to Ukraine’s mineral deposits. Trump is actively working on a solution with Putin while attempting to pressure Middle Eastern leaders like King Abdullah of Jordan to take in displaced Palestinians. His stance on Gaza rejects the traditional two-state solution, proposing an alternative to address the crisis. At home, Trump’s border czar accuses the FBI of endangering lives through leaks, while his administration cancels $180M in government contracts and cuts education funding, including controversial DEI training programs.

We have to have relations around the world. And we have to have concerns around the world.
Trump had everything simmered with our Asian allies. North Korea would not have been in a tight relationship with Russia. The Obama administration did absolutely nothing with North Korea. Friday Trump had some kind words about Xi with the PM of Japan. Our allies are happy that Trump is back in there and he will have a conversation with North Korea.
Trump says If the election wasn’t rigged nothing would be happening on the world stage. If there wasn’t a rigged election, think about the lives that have been lost and the backwards direction we have gone in the last 4 years. Hamas would not have attacked on Oct 7. Trump was not in office with Joe Biden and allowed Russia to cross into Ukraine. Trump has to clean up the mess. Trump knows what Zelensky has done. Zelensky is trying to make amends with Trump offering mineral deposits in a deal. This is not a deal after all the money and equipment we have sent. Trump makes the deal. We don’t trust Zelensky. Trump is working on a plan with Putin, and Zelensky is nervous.
The King of Jordan is coming to the White House today. King Abdullah. Arab states reject Trump's plan for Gaza. Egypt FM tells Rubio. Egypt will find out that this is a different kind of plan and this is Trump’s plan. Trump wants to build very nice places for the Palestinians to live. Right now it is completely decimated before Trump became president. Trump is trying to tell Egypt and Jordan to take these people. Jordan’s population is primarily palestinian. This is the pressure Trump will propose today. The two state solution is never going to happen because of the corruption involved. There needs to be a different solution and Trump is the first to not say a two state solution.
