Munich Report: US Becomes Global Risk, Spurring International Hedging
The Munich Security Conference report highlights a global shift away from US-led international order, driven by President Trump’s reelection and subsequent foreign policy changes. Trump’s actions, including tariff threats and territorial ambitions, have created significant global uncertainty, prompting other powers to view the US as a risk. The report questions whether reduced US engagement will exacerbate or mitigate global instability. The upcoming conference aims to address pressing issues, including the ongoing war in Ukraine.
