President Donald Trump’s growing unstable behavior is creating crises with America’s allies, undermining US National Security in massive ways.
The relationship with South Korea, which the US has defended ever since the Korean War, is in crisis as Trump is now calling for cutback in joint security exercises that have protected that nation from the nuclear power next day, North Korea.
The relationship with the Gulf States in the Middle East that are allies against Iran is also being threatened, most recently the threat to attack Oman, but also the growing concern of Saudi Arabia and other nations in the area to the unstable behavior of the American President.
The relationship with Canada is at its lowest point in history, with many Canadians furious at the US attitude toward them that has developed under Donald Trump.
The NATO allies in Europe are alarmed over US belligerence and hostility toward their decision to avoid involvement in the failed Iran War. And the growing threat on oil exploration in Greenland, which is opposed by that nation and its supporter, Denmark, is worrying many about the possibility of warfare between NATO and the United States.
Other nations in Asia, such as Japan, the Philippines, along with Australia and New Zealand, are working to form their own alliances of defense, with the growing lack of trust in American support.
Latin American nations are seeing Trump revive the imperialist past behavior in the hemisphere, including threats to take over the Panama Canal.
The entire international order is being upended in a dangerous manner, with Donald Trump cozying up to authoritarian leaders, including North Korea and its threat to South Korea; China and the threat to Taiwan and other Asian allies; and Russia, in its fifth year of war with Ukraine, a danger to NATO.
