Donald Trump's presidency is characterized by a clear move towards isolationism, marked by his withdrawal from several key international agreements. Following his inauguration, Trump signed executive orders to exit the Paris Agreement, the World Health Organization, and the OECD tax pact. His approach threatens to not only undermine U.S. global influence but also harm its clean energy industry, estimated at nearly $2 billion annually. Furthermore, Trump's criticisms of multilateral institutions, including NATO and U.N. agencies, suggest a broader strategy to recalibrate U.S. foreign policy, potentially allowing rivals to fill the gaps left by American disengagement.
Trump's administration marks a significant departure from international agreements, opting for isolationism, which may inadvertently empower geopolitical rivals as the U.S. retreats from global institutions.
By pulling out of international agreements like the Paris Accord, the U.S. risks harming its clean energy sector and opens pathways for other nations to lead on climate initiatives.
