Trump’s inauguration coincides with the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland, where his return to power is a major topic of discussion .
As Trump begins his second term, there are expectations of significant changes in US policy, including the imposition of steep tariffs on other major economies, reassessing military and diplomatic alliances, and reforming multilateral institutions.
The global economy is bracing for the impact of these changes, with many economists predicting a trade war between the US and China.
Trump’s return to the White House also raises questions about his approach to foreign policy, particularly with regards to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and the recent ceasefire announcement in Gaza.
As the world watches Trump’s next moves, one thing is certain his second term is expected to be just as eventful as his first.
