The Trump Presidency Begins: What’s on the Table for the EU

With the start of Donald Trump’s presidency, the countries of the European Union face challenges intertwining economy, geopolitics, and internal sovereignty. The U.S.’s protectionist approach could ignite a trade war, hitting key European export sectors with new tariffs. At the same time, the growing influence of figures like Elon Musk, with his support for populist movements such as Germany’s AfD, raises concerns about democratic stability and the independence of internal European policies.

ENERGY

Is the EU ready for the second Trump administration? A look at the energy aspects 

The European Union is preparing for the next four years of coexistence with the U.S. administration of Donald Trump. The new White House tenant, now in his second term, has already made promises that have caused concern in Brussels and in the chancelleries of EU member states. From security to the economy, with the bogeyman of tariffs hanging over European industries, already weakened by the many shocks of recent years, the Trump effect on the European Union could cause many problems and exacerbate already existing tensions on the continent. One of the issues causing the most alarm is energy. Trump’s approach to energy policy, both domestic and international, often conflicted with the EU’s environmental goals, and his “America First” rhetoric already complicated traditional cooperation in areas such as climate change, energy security, and international trade during his first term in office at the White House.

MIGRATION

The Trump Presidency Begins What’s on the Table for the EU Regarding Migration

As Donald Trump resumes the presidency, the European Union faces significant challenges and opportunities concerning migration, particularly in light of his stringent policies on immigration and border security. His approach, especially regarding the southern border with Mexico, has profound implications not only for the United States but also for Europe, which is grappling with its own migration crises. Understanding Trump’s decrees and their potential impact on migration patterns is crucial for the EU as it navigates this complex issue. Trump’s presidency is marked by a hardline stance on immigration. His administration has prioritized border security, including the construction of a wall along the US-Mexico border, as a means to prevent illegal immigration and drug trafficking.

EMPLOYMENT & SOCIAL AFFAIRS

How the return of Donald Trump at the White House could impact EU societies

Donald Trump’s second term as president of the United States promises to create more problems for the European Union and its member countries. At a time of political and economic hardship for many European nations, Germany and France foremost among them, the Republican tycoon’s arrival in the White House is likely to find the European Union weakened and exposed to threats that seemed distant during Joe Biden’s four years at the helm of the United States. The main topic of concern is economic tariffs, which could aggravate the already very complicated situation of European industries.

FUTURE EUROPE

Second term of Trump Presidency: what can we expect for the future of the EU?

After 12 hours as President of the United States, Donald J. Trump had already signed 40 Executive Orders, including the withdrawal from the Paris Agreement and the World Health Organisation. This alarming attitude made it clear that the European Union is bracing for significant challenges that could reshape its economic, political, and energy landscape. Among the many challenges the EU may have to face in the coming months (or hours), we can mention at least three areas to follow.

ECONOMY

What can the EU expect from Trump’s administration?

With Donald Trump returning to the presidency, the European Union faces a complex landscape of economic and financial cooperation that may be significantly altered under his administration. As the EU grapples with the implications of Trump’s policies, particularly his protectionist trade stance, it is crucial to analyze how these changes could impact Europe’s economy and its financial ties with the United States. Trump’s presidency is characterized by a marked shift towards economic protectionism, which poses substantial risks for the EU. His administration has already signaled intentions to impose tariffs on a broad range of imports, with proposed rates ranging from 10% to as high as 25% on certain goods, including automobiles. This move is not merely a continuation of past policies but represents an escalation that could reshape transatlantic trade dynamics significantly.
