Participants of the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos are expressing deep concern over the foreign policy course pursued by US President Donald Trump. According to Operative Information Center-OMM, citing the Financial Times (FT), recent steps taken by official Washington on the international stage have increased tensions in diplomatic circles.
The publication notes that the United States has returned to a policy of "hard intervention" in the Middle East and Latin America, though this time the processes are accompanied by a distinct style characteristic of the Trump administration. In particular, the combative stance demonstrated toward Venezuela and Iran remains one of the primary topics of discussion among forum participants. It was emphasized that the "peacemaking" position promised by US President Donald Trump during the election campaign has now given way to active interventionism. European leaders remain cautious about the escalation of relations with Washington, despite the US being the main pillar of NATO. The situation surrounding the Greenland issue and potential sanction threats against Denmark are viewed as factors that could lead to disastrous consequences for the alliance.
The World Economic Forum (WEF), held annually in the Swiss resort of Davos, serves as a premier global platform for heads of state, business leaders, and intellectuals to discuss pressing international issues. Analysts believe that the cold attitude demonstrated by the White House toward the EU and US President Donald Trump's previous considerations regarding a withdrawal from NATO are deepening mistrust among allies. This atmosphere of uncertainty at Davos highlights a significant shift in transatlantic relations and the broader global geopolitical landscape, as traditional alliances face unprecedented diplomatic challenges.
