SBeginning with Donald Trump never works long. Narendra Modi is the latest leader of the world to learn this lesson in a difficult way. In avoiding his “true friend” in the White House, the authorities of India’s Prime Minister thought he had conquered Trump’s incredible heart. The two men hit peak pals in 2019, holding hands in a “Howdy Modi” rally in Texas. But all of this has lost the pear -shaped thanks to Trump’s tariffs and loyalty to Pakistan. Like a jilted lover on rebound, Modi has no shame to throw himself at Vladimir Putin in China last week. Don at Narendra! It’s over! Although, to be honest, it always felt a little shallow.
The other suitors for Trump’s slippery hand suffered a similar heartbreak. Emmanuel Macron of France turned to beauty, taking him to the Grand Reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral. But Trump quickly threw him away after arguing with Gaza, calling him a “always mistaken” publicity seeker. EU’s Ursula von der Leyen, desperate for a tete-a-tete, flew over Trump’s Scottish Golf course to pay court. Results: Perhaps the most embarrassing, lopsided trade deal since the 19th century Imperial Britain has “uneven agreements” on the throne of the Peking dragon.
The list of broken promises and strong hope is long. The relationships between the states are usually pivot in power, policy and strategic interest. But in unbelief, Fickle Trump, always personal – and unfamiliar. Annoyingly, he told the wonderful Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum, who “liked him so much” – then threatened to attack his country, which was very difficult in pursuit of drug cartels. Leaders from Canada, Germany, Japan, South Korea and South Africa have been attempted to attract themselves, to different degrees. They are still not well.
All of this should set red lights that glisten for Britain’s keir starmer ahead of Trump’s state visit for 10 days. The Prime Minister’s Unedifying Trump-Whisperer Act has made little benefits to the present, at high reputation costs. Starmer seems to believe that his handling of US relations is a highlight of his first year in the office. But Trump ignores his pleasures of stopping Gaza and opposes the UK’s recognition of a Palestinian state. He strongly strengthened Putin, Nemesis of Britain, along with his half -Alaska Summit. The US security guarantee for Postwar Ukraine is more mirage than reality. His steel tariffs and protectionist policies continue to hurt workers in the UK.
His second visit to the state was a surprising prospect. The honor is completely inappropriate. Obviously what Trump will get: a royal endorsement, an opportunity to play with being King Donald, a privileged platform from which to deliver his corrosive, separating population-nationalist diatribes in a moment of major social destruction in the US and UK. The polls suggest many Britons are strongly opposed to the visit; And most do not trust the US. So what Starmer thinks he can get is a mystery. The quick goodness of a dictator who removes US democracy and wrecking the global order-based UK champion is a bad return.
As he demands worship from the topics of abuse, this vision will confirm the UK in the eyes of the world as a state of lackey, afraid to stand for its values. Starmer’s government is now morally confused that it refuses to recognize that Israel, whom Trump fully supports, produces a genocide in Gaza, while at the same time wearing a pro-pelestine t-shirt that is a terrorist gesture. Trump’s travesty would be a shame, which signed a further descent into colonial caution. As the US’s 1250th anniversary approach to the 1250th anniversary, the successive unhealthy “special relationship” is finally full circle.
Not everyone comes from Trump -and the evidence is mounted on that fight, not cautious, is in the best way to handle this oppression. Modi’s geopolitical fling in China has shown that he has learned that when talking to Trump, steady resolution, supported by alternative options, is the better policy. Last week’s rugged speech by China leader Xi Jinping, reflects a similar realization. Both he and Putin discovered that when they were digging their heels, if the issue was Ukraine, trade or punishment, Trump turned away. Xi has adopted an uncompromising stance from the beginning. Putin uses flattery, great manipulation of Trump’s weak ego. The result is the same. Like cowards around the world, Trump respects strength because he is weak. So he caves.
The bigger the wolf, the more intense Trump responds. Israeli’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, like Putin, an indicted criminal war, showed that by clinging to his guns (literally, in his case), he could face Trump. Furthermore, Trump could be selected. After Netanyahu attacked Iran in June, against US initial advice, he urged the White House to join – though, incredibly, Trump did only once he was sure he won. Then, usually, he claimed credit for a bad world success. North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, is just like Trump’s bamboo in his first term. Having nothing to learn, and care for his unexplained The ambitions of the Nobel Peace Prize, Trump reiterated the hopeless contact with Kim.
Brazil President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has the right idea. The more Trump tries to get him 50% tariffs and a criticism of criticism, the more he resisted. Trump was particularly exercise with Jair Bolsonaro’s fate, Lula’s hard-rightly predecessor, who, like Trump, mounted a failed electoral coup. But Lula doesn’t have anything. “If the United States does not want to buy [from us]We will find new partners, “he said.” The world is big, and eager to do business in Brazil. “

That’s the Spirit! And guess what? Lula’s poll ratings are growing. Wake up, keir starmer – and throw Trump.
