For decades now, it has been the usual. The United States is an enemy of Russia and related countries, China and the United States are vicious competitors, Arab countries like Saudi Arabia are allies, Japan is an ally, the Americans and the Europeans have a common interest and the US and the UK are the closest of friends. But all that are now facing uncertainties.

For the first time in decades, all global foreign leaders are working to make an ally of Donald Trump, the newly elected President of the United States. The rhetoric of Mr. Trump during his campaign, where he called for more contributions from other NATO member countries, his call to improve relations with Russia and his call to end oil imports have scared or excited many countries.

After winning the election, Mr. Trump said his administration will be ready to work and engage with all foreign partners who are willing to do the same. While some see risks, others see opportunity. Donald Trump’s presidency has truly presented an opportunity for the United States as the leaders of both traditional foreign allies and foes make their arguments on why their interests align. It is truly a real change that has naturally come to the US, due to Donald Trump’s win and his unconventional rhetoric.
