U.S. President Donald Trump’s return to office has led to the swift enactment of executive orders and regulatory shifts. Key actions include the withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord, the termination of birthright citizenship and initiatives to promote blockchain networks and dollar-backed stablecoins. These measures signal a broader effort to reshape United States policy across economic, technological and geopolitical domains.

Most observers both in the West and in other parts of the world nowadays discuss the impact of Donald Trump’s return to power in the United States. Following that, most observers have begun analyzing the meaning of Trump’s policies from conceptual and theoretical perspectives. Many Western academicians and intellectuals have been trying to show that Trump’s administration and policies are an anomaly in the Western world. Thus, they mislead the world's public opinion.

Donald Trump has made a fast start to his second term as the president of the U.S., the strongest state in the world.

The Middle East is on fire and neither regional nor global actors do much to prevent further bloodshed in the region.

The Israeli leadership knows well that none of the Western global actors dare to follow a deterrent policy against Israel.

Southern Türkiye was jolted by twin earthquakes on February 6 that caused unprecedented devastation across an extremely vast area, impacting 11 provinces. Almost on par with the scale of the devastation, Türkiye has also received a huge amount of humanitarian aid from many countries with which Türkiye both has cordial and strained relations. In light of the considerable level of solidarity showcased by many countries, it is still unclear whether this atmosphere of solidarity and amicability will translate into tangible outcomes in the respective bilateral relations between Türkiye and these nations. Likewise, it is also unclear whether the solidarity displayed by countries with which Türkiye had tense relations until the earthquakes will cause a thaw in bilateral ties and lead to a new chapter in relations. We asked foreign policy experts to weigh in on these questions.
