Trump’s Challenge to the Global Order
 

Speaker: Prof. Yan Xuetong, distinguished Professor at Tsinghua University and the Honorary President of the Institute of International Relations, Tsinghua University (TUIIR). Former Secretary-General of the World Peace Forum (WPF), the first high-level international security forum initiated by a Chinese non-governmental institution.

Chair: Shyam Saran, President, IIC

Trump 1.0 shifted the globalization order during the post-Cold War to the present counter-globalization order, and his second term is accelerating this trend. Economically, this trend manifests as the fragmentation of global markets; politically, as the non-compliance with human rights norms; and in terms of security, as increasing military violation of sovereignty. Europe, the Middle East, and Africa are the regions with continuous military conflicts, while China-US competition will concentrate in East Asia but where is likely to remain relatively peaceful.
