World Braces For Trump Era (Worthy News Focus)
By Stefan J. Bos, Chief International Correspondent Worthy News
WASHINGTON/JERUSALEM/BUDAPEST (Worthy News) – World leaders braced Wednesday for a Trump era as Donald J. Trump emerged like a phoenix from the ashes to win the U.S. presidential race again after surviving two assassination attempts and facing defeat in a previous election.
His victory added to concerns thousands of miles away in Kyiv amid concern there that Trump will end U.S. military support to Ukraine, which is fighting against Russia’s invading army.
Yet Ukrainian President Zelenskyy said he can “appreciate President Trump’s commitment to the ‘peace through strength’ approach in global affairs.”
Writing on social media platform X, the president stressed, “This is exactly the principle that can practically bring just peace in Ukraine closer. I am hopeful that we will put it into action together.”
He added, “We look forward to an era of a strong United States of America under President Trump’s decisive leadership.”
The secretary-general of the NATO military alliance, Mark Rutte, made clear that such cooperation is “to advance peace through strength.“
Rutte warned, „We face a growing number of challenges globally, from a more aggressive Russia to terrorism, to strategic competition with China, as well the increasing alignment of China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran.“
WORKING TOGETHER
However, “Working together through NATO helps to deter aggression, protect our collective security, and support our economies,” he announced.
Rutte also praised Trump for his work during his first term to persuade U.S. allies in NATO “to ramp up defense spending.”
He claimed that around two-thirds of the 32 NATO allies are due to meet the organization’s main defense spending target this year.
The European Union’s executive European Commission president also expressed hope for more EU-U.S. cooperation. Ursula von der Leyen said the EU and the United States “are more than just allies. We are bound by a true partnership between our people, uniting 800 million citizens.”
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreed, calling Donald J. Trump’s victory in the presidential elections a new beginning.
“Congratulations on history’s greatest comeback!” wrote Netanyahu on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
Under the previous presidency of Trump, the U.S. embassy moved to Jerusalem while the Abraham Accords on Arab–Israeli normalization was signed between Israel and the United Arab Emirates and between Israel and Bahrain.
HUNGARY REACTS
Elsewhere in Europe, Hungary’s rightwing Prime Minister Viktor Orbán was closely monitoring the ballot as one of Trump’s most outspoken supporters in the European Union. “I see a spectacular victory, perhaps the greatest comeback in Western political history, a huge fight,” Orbán said.
Speaking about Trump, Orbán noted that the Republican politician “had overcome possible prison, a confiscation of his assets and assassination attempts while “the whole media world of the U.S. turned against him.”
Yet “he has still won,” Orbán stressed in a video message seen by Worthy News.
Orbán said he hopes Trump will help end the Russia-Ukraine war and added that “there is now a great chance” that pro-peace forces will become a majority in the Western world by the end of the year.
It took time before Orbán and others could project the vote as being won by Trump.
More than four hours after first Worthy News and then minutes later broadcaster Fox News declared Donald J. Trump the 47th president of the United States, The Associated Press (AP) news agency agreed.
In a somewhat biased news story, the AP concluded that Trump made “an extraordinary comeback for a former president who refused to accept defeat four years ago, sparked a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was convicted of felony charges, and survived two assassination attempts.”
With a win in Wisconsin, Trump cleared the 270 electoral votes needed to clinch the presidency, the AP said.
