Join the National Association of Scholars for "Trump 2.0 Foreign Policy: An Annual Review" tomorrow, March 10, at 2 pm ET.
President Donald Trump’s first year back in office has been marked by a series of consequential foreign policy decisions reshaping America’s global posture. From military action against Iran’s nuclear infrastructure to renewed trade negotiations and a high-level meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, the administration has emphasized what it describes as “flexible realism” in advancing U.S. interests. At the same time, efforts to broker ceasefire arrangements in the Middle East, recalibrate NATO commitments, and prioritize competition in the Indo-Pacific and Western Hemisphere reflect a broader strategic reorientation. Major developments in Venezuela, Taiwan, and the Arctic further underscore the administration’s willingness to pair economic statecraft with security initiatives.
This event will examine the strategic logic behind these actions, assess the risks and opportunities ahead, and consider how the first year sets the trajectory for the remainder of the term.
This event will feature Dr. George E. Bogden, the Senior Counsel for Trade at Continental Strategy and an attorney focused on cross-border policy, in 2025, he served as Executive Director of the Office of Trade Relations at U.S. Customs and Border Protection, acting as the agency’s primary liaison to the international trade community during a period of significant change in U.S. tariff and trade practices; Dr. J.
