Donald Trump’s presidency has seen a pattern of alienating America’s traditional allies while taking a tough stance on smaller, pro-American countries such as Colombia, Canada, and Panama. Trump imposed tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China, while threatening to seize the Panama Canal, leaving these nations feeling pressured. This approach risks driving these countries into the arms of strategic competitors like China, who are eager to capitalize on any diplomatic rifts. Trump’s defenders argue that these measures are necessary to assert American power and prevent being taken advantage of, but critics warn of a possible backlash and global resentment. Under the Biden administration, efforts to repatriate undocumented immigrants from Colombia were already in place, with some questioning the necessity of the military-style flights proposed by Trump. Overall, Trump’s combative approach to foreign policy has raised concerns about the long-term implications for America’s relationships with key allies and the potential for other countries to seek closer ties with rivals like China.
