With the world closely watching the U.S. 2024 election, what could a Trump or Harris presidency mean for international stability? From rising tensions in Eastern Europe to critical climate action, the global implications of the U.S. election stretch far beyond American borders.
The European Union Institute for Security Studies (EUISS) has been exploring "how a Trump or a Harris presidency would affect key flashpoints around the world." The positions of the Democratic and Republican candidates for the U.S. Presidency differ significantly on many issues, particularly regarding how the U.S. should engage with the rest of the world.
In The US elections: what choices for Europe?, the EUISS outlines a number of key global flashpoints and examines the potential impacts on these areas if either Trump or Harris wins next month's election. Despite the title, this analysis covers flashpoints beyond Europe, many of which are global in nature.
As readers scroll through the EUISS article, an interactive globe spins and zooms in on each flashpoint in turn, highlighting how that area could be affected by the foreign policies of Trump or Harris. The flashpoints discussed include the Russian invasion of Ukraine, U.S.-EU trade relations, the Israel-Hamas war, and global climate change.
While the EUISS analysis centers on an EU perspective, it provides a compelling synopsis of each candidate's foreign policy vision. And with global media attention often locked on domestic issues, the international consequences of the 2024 U.S. election could prove to be just as important. Whether it's maintaining stability in Europe or confronting global climate challenges, the next U.S. president will have a profound influence on the future of international relations.
