“It is clear that the president Donald Trump It has plans for the new world order. Perhaps he can share his vision with the country when he goes to Congress on Tuesday. ” Thus begins the editorial this Sunday (2) of one of the largest newspapers in the United States, the Wall Street Journal.
In a hard opinion article, the newspaper states that the US president seems to seek a “old world order”, composed of the competition between great powers and balance of power that prevailed before World War II. The partners of the time would be China and Russia. “It’s less a new brave world than a reversal to an old and dangerous. Mr. Trump did not articulate this, but some of the intellectuals around him did, ”says the WSJ.
If the US President demonstrates strength before old friends, the newspaper considers that the stance with Xi Jinping, head of the Chinese Communist Party, shows that Trump would be “courting.” The lack of action in Taiwan’s defense against China would be related to initiatives to search for control of the Panama Canal and possible purchase of Greenland from Denmark.
“These movements, together, suggest a worldview that has long been the goal of American isolationists: letting China master the Pacific, Russia dominate Europe and the US to the Americas. The Middle East presumably would remain a region of dispute, at least until Mr. Trump makes a nuclear deal with Iran, ”says the article.
As a result of the movements, Russia could impose peace on Ukraine in its terms and, in the future, invade. America would be at the mercy of US interests and seek business relations that would not conflict with the country. And China, in turn, could advance on Taiwan and put Japan in attention.
