Fyodor Lukyanov argues Trump's return to global politics highlights crucial aspects of modern world
(MENAFN) Fyodor Lukyanov argues that Donald Trump's return to global Politics highlights two crucial aspects of the modern world: the enduring dominance of the United States and Trump's unorthodox, blunt approach to international relations. Trump's style, which rejects hypocrisy and embraces directness, has disrupted the traditional diplomatic order. He is less concerned with ideals and more focused on achieving results, often at the expense of niceties and diplomacy. This shift is evident in his interactions with other nations, where his self-interested and transactional approach contrasts with the previous "benign hegemon" role the US held.
Lukyanov suggests that Trump’s bluntness reflects a broader trend towards “post-hypocrisy,” where traditional diplomacy's smooth rhetoric and compromises are replaced by direct, results-oriented discourse. While this has alienated some nations, Trump's approach has proven effective in furthering US interests, challenging the liberal world order and making international dialogue more concrete but also more divisive.
