Ten Minutes On... Trump's Foreign Policy
One month into Donald Trump’s second term, his foreign policy approach is becoming clear—driven by raw power and unilateralism. From tariff threats to criticism of Europe and Ukraine, and even suggestions of force to seize Greenland and the Panama Canal, Trump’s America is reshaping the global order.
What does this mean for other states? How can they respond?
In this episode, Guy Burton, drawing on his expertise as a university lecturer in international relations, breaks down the key schools of thought in the field—realism, liberalism, and constructivism—and explores how they apply to Trump’s strategy and the reactions of other global actors.
