The re-election of U.S. President Donald Trump has ignited widespread concerns about the future of American foreign policy, particularly his approach to regions like the Middle East and China. In this episode of New Wave Global, host Rabia Mehmood speaks with Ejaz Haider, a senior writer, editor, and columnist at The Friday Times, as well as a security analyst and resident fellow at the Centre for Security, Strategy, and Policy Research at the University of Lahore. Haider explores potential shifts in Trump’s foreign policy following his return to power, arguing that Trump is more consistent than unpredictable. He delves into Trump’s stance on the Middle East, particularly in the context of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Palestine. He also examines the implications for South Asia, focusing on the India-China rivalry and the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. According to Haider, a second Trump administration would likely continue Biden’s trade war with China, while India could face new challenges under Trump’s leadership. Tune in for expert insights into how a second Trump term could shape global diplomacy.
