Trump’s Early Presidency Redefines Global Economic and Energy Policies

Donald Trump’s return to the White House brings sweeping executive orders, tariff threats, and shifts in climate and trade policies, sparking global economic and political recalibrations.

• At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Trump emphasized his 'America First' agenda, promoting domestic manufacturing through tariff threats and deregulation, while urging global investors to shift operations to the U.S.
• Trump’s executive orders halted new offshore wind leases, withdrew the U.S. from the Paris Climate Agreement, and reversed several Biden-era climate policies, raising concerns about renewable energy development and climate security.
• The U.S. auto industry faces potential disruption as Trump’s proposed 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada could raise car prices and strain supply chains, particularly for electric vehicles.
• Trump signaled a willingness to negotiate a ceasefire in Ukraine, proposing a meeting with Vladimir Putin, while also calling on China to assist in ending the conflict, hinting at a possible thaw in U.S.-China relations.
• European leaders expressed concerns about Trump’s deregulatory agenda and economic policies, which they see as exacerbating the EU’s struggles with slow growth, regulatory burdens, and competitiveness against U.S. and Chinese markets.
