As the United States approaches a pivotal presidential election, the foreign policy agendas of Kamala Harris and Donald Trump could have significant global impacts. Here’s a look at their priorities on key international issues.
Kamala Harris
Middle East: Prioritise US military interests against Iran and prevent it from developing nuclear capabilities. Support Israel’s "right to defend itself" with additional military aid and endorse a two-state solution to end the Gaza conflict.
Ukraine War: Support Ukraine against Russia for as long as needed.
China Relations: Hold China accountable on human rights issues and support Taiwan’s defense. Maintain economic ties with China to safeguard American interests.
Donald Trump
Middle East: Focus on “peace through strength” to avoid World War III, support Israel, and seek Middle East peace but has not explicitly committed to ending the Gaza conflict.
Ukraine War: Pledge to end the Ukraine conflict within 24 hours through negotiations, aiming for an isolationist policy to withdraw the US from global conflicts.
China Relations: Revoke China’s "most favored nation" status, strengthen strategic independence against Chinese threats, and negotiate a working relationship with China, with Taiwan covering US protection costs.
