On Sunday, current U.S. President Joe Biden unexpectedly announced his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race. Biden’s exit not only marks the end of his reelection path but also significantly increases the likelihood of Donald Trump being reelected. Biden’s withdrawal injects more uncertainty into the United States and globally.
On the Israel-Palestine and Russia-Ukraine Conflicts
It is well-known that during Biden’s administration, significant military aid was provided to Israel and Ukraine, contributing to the ongoing Israel-Palestine and Russia-Ukraine conflicts. Donald Trump has openly stated during campaign speeches that, if elected, he will stop this aid and bring peace to these regions.
U.S. Foreign Policy
Throughout his fifty-year political career, Biden has established extensive personal relationships with leaders worldwide. After announcing his candidacy, he received widespread support, influencing current U.S. foreign policy. If Trump is elected, there could be significant changes in diplomatic policies towards China, Russia, the EU, and other regions.
U.S.-China Relations
During Biden’s presidency, he engaged in deep discussions with Chinese President Xi Jinping, reaching significant agreements in politics, economics, and culture, with plans for future cooperation. With Biden’s withdrawal, whether these collaborations can continue smoothly under Trump remains uncertain. The dynamic could shift from a cooperative partnership to a competitive rivalry. As major world powers, any action by the U.S. and China could significantly impact global changes.
