Half of Project 2025 Policies Already Implemented

As Donald Trump prepares for his State of the Union address, many of the ultra-conservative policies outlined in Project 2025 are already in effect. The 900-page blueprint, developed by the Heritage Foundation before the 2024 election, had previously been publicly disavowed by Trump. Despite his earlier distancing, analysts say roughly half of Project 2025’s proposals have been implemented during Trump’s first year back in the White House. Measures include a crackdown on immigration, ending federal diversity and inclusion programs, halting billions in foreign aid, and cutting thousands of federal jobs. Project 2025’s centerpiece, the Mandate for Leadership, laid out strategies to expand presidential power and reshape federal agencies. Experts note it not only suggested policies but also provided detailed legal and administrative methods for execution. Early moves by the Trump administration reflected these plans, including reorganizing the United States Agency […]

Rubio Reassures Europe at Munich Summit

Marco Rubio drew intense scrutiny at the Munich Security Conference, as European leaders watched closely for signals about the trajectory of transatlantic relations under Donald Trump. Although Rubio’s remarks did not entirely dispel European unease, they were broadly interpreted as an effort to reassure allies that strains in US-Europe relations would not amount to a rupture. His tone contrasted with last year’s sharper rhetoric from JD Vance, whose speech had openly criticised European political and cultural trends. Rubio, however, was not the only American voice seeking to steady nerves in Munich. A sizable bipartisan delegation of US lawmakers and governors attended the summit, including several Democrats widely seen as potential contenders for the 2028 presidential nomination. Among them was Gavin Newsom, who underscored the temporality of the current administration. “Donald Trump is temporary. He’ll be gone in three years,” he […]

Rubio urges calmer US Europe ties as Trump era shocks strain Munich security talks

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio says ties between the United States and Europe have reached a defining moment as leaders gather for the Munich Security Conference.​ Speaking before the meeting in Germany, Rubio said the old world order is gone and a new era in geopolitics is emerging that will force both sides to rethink their roles. He stressed that the United States and Europe remain deeply linked and must discuss how to shape their shared future.​ The annual forum in Munich comes after years of turbulence under President Donald Trump, whose harsh rhetoric and disruptive policies have shaken U.S. alliances. European partners have watched Washington topple Venezuela’s leader, threaten other Latin American governments, impose tariffs on allies and rivals and even talk about annexing Greenland from NATO partner Denmark.​ Last year at Munich, Vice President JD Vance clashed […]

Trump Warns Iran Trade Partners With New Tariff Threat

US President Donald Trump has signed a new executive order warning of additional tariffs on countries that continue commercial relations with Iran, tightening Washington’s economic pressure on Tehran. The order, signed on Friday, authorises the United States to impose import tariffs on goods from any country that “directly or indirectly” purchases Iranian goods or services. While no fixed rate is specified, the document cites 25% as a reference level. The measure could apply broadly to imports entering the US market from countries found to be trading with Iran. Speaking aboard Air Force One on Friday night, Trump did not comment directly on the executive order but reiterated his long-standing position that Iran must not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons. The move comes as diplomatic talks between senior US and Iranian officials continue in Oman, following weeks of escalating rhetoric […]

Trump’s Iran tariff threat risks reopening China rift

US President Donald Trump’s threat to impose a 25 percent tariff on any country that trades with Iran is raising fears of a renewed rift with China, Tehran’s biggest commercial partner. Analysts say the move could drag Beijing back into a trade confrontation with Washington just as both sides were trying to stabilise ties.​ Trump announced on Monday that his administration is preparing the new tariffs as part of efforts to punish Iran over its crackdown on protests and to choke off the country’s oil revenues. The proposed measure would hit major buyers of Iranian crude and goods, including China, India and several countries in Asia.​ China has repeatedly criticised unilateral US sanctions and defended its energy and trade links with Iran as legitimate under international law. Beijing is also a key player in Iran’s oil, infrastructure and technology sectors […]

Petro warns of possible US military action

Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro has said there is now a serious risk of US military action against his country, warning that Washington’s recent rhetoric and operations are pushing relations into dangerous territory. In an interview with the BBC, Petro said the United States was increasingly behaving like an “empire” toward Latin America and could end up becoming isolated internationally if it continued on its current path. His comments came after US President Donald Trump said a military operation in Colombia “sounds good”, following recent US strikes in Venezuela and the capture of Nicolás Maduro. Petro said such statements could not be taken lightly, recalling Colombia’s past loss of territory and describing the remarks as a “real threat” to national sovereignty. The two leaders spoke by phone on Wednesday, with Trump later describing the exchange as an honour and suggesting he […]

Trump to meet Venezuela’s Machado in Washington next week

US President Donald Trump says he plans to meet Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado in Washington next week. He spoke during an interview on Fox News, after recent US military strikes in Venezuela led to the capture of President Nicolas Maduro.​ Trump said he understands Machado will be in Washington and that he looks forward to greeting her, but did not give a specific date or agenda for the meeting. The White House has not released further details, and Machado’s team has also not confirmed the exact plans.​ This would be Trump’s first meeting with Machado, who won the Nobel Peace Prize in October for her role in opposing Maduro’s government. The talks are expected to focus on Venezuela’s political future after Maduro’s removal and the role the opposition could play in a new government.​ Trump has said he […]

Trump pulls US out of dozens of global organisations

US President Donald Trump has ordered the United States to withdraw from dozens of international organisations, including many focused on climate change and global governance. The decision affects 66 entities, nearly half of which are affiliated with the United Nations. Among those impacted is the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the treaty that forms the foundation of international cooperation to address global warming. The White House said the withdrawals were justified on the grounds that these organisations no longer align with US interests and support agendas considered ineffective or hostile. According to an official statement, the move follows a review that concluded continued participation amounted to a misuse of public funds. The administration said the decision would end US financial contributions and involvement in bodies it believes prioritise global initiatives over national priorities. It further accused several organisations of […]

Trump renews Greenland push, warns Cuba, Colombia, Mexico

US President Donald Trump has again set his sights on Greenland after ordering military action in Venezuela, saying the United States “needs” the Arctic territory for national security and accusing Denmark of being unable to protect it. He framed Greenland as strategically vital due to its location and rising great power competition in the Arctic, repeating his desire to bring the largely autonomous Danish territory under US control.​ Trump also issued sharp threats against left leaning governments in Latin America, particularly Colombia and Cuba, following the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro. He accused Colombian President Gustavo Petro of overseeing cocaine production and warned that Petro “won’t be doing it for long,” while suggesting a possible US operation in Colombia “sounds good” to him.​ Mexico was likewise warned to “get its act together” over drug cartels, with Trump hinting at […]

Trump renews push to annex Greenland

Donald Trump has once again floated the idea of the United States annexing Greenland, despite firm opposition from Danish and Greenlandic leaders, who have urged him to end what they describe as repeated threats toward the Arctic territory. Speaking to reporters, the US president said Washington “needs Greenland from the standpoint of national security,” repeating arguments he has made in the past about the island’s strategic importance and mineral resources. Greenland’s Prime Minister, Jens Frederik Nielsen, rejected the proposal outright, calling it unrealistic and unacceptable. “That’s enough now,” he said, adding that any suggestion of US control over Greenland was a “fantasy.” He stressed that Greenland was open to dialogue, but only through established diplomatic channels and with full respect for international law. Denmark’s Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen, also responded strongly, stating that the United States has no right to […]
