News India Live, Digital Desk: America’s newly elected President Donald Trump has started showing the sharp stance of his foreign policy. Trump has currently removed Pakistan’s name from the list of his possible visits, which is being seen as a major diplomatic blow for Islamabad. On the other hand, the high-level phone call between America and Iran, setting aside decades of bitterness, has shocked the entire world. This one decision of Trump has completely changed the equations of South Asia and the Middle East.
Pakistan’s hopes dashed
The government of Pakistan had been inviting Donald Trump to visit Islamabad for a long time, so that the ice in bilateral relations could be melted. However, according to the news coming from Washington, the Trump administration has made it clear that at present the visit to Pakistan is not included in their agenda. Experts believe that this distance has increased further due to Pakistan’s wavering policy on the issue of terrorism and Trump’s strong relations with India. This news has come for Pakistan when it is already struggling with economic poverty and internal instability.
‘Phone call’ diplomacy with Iran: Will history change?
The most surprising news has come from the Iran front. It is being told that there was a recent phone conversation between Donald Trump and the Iranian leadership. Trump, who was known for imposing the toughest sanctions on Iran in his previous term, now seems to be returning to the negotiating table. This call is being considered as a mixed form of ‘pressure tactics’ and ‘diplomacy’. Whether this conversation is a new step towards a nuclear agreement or just an attempt to reduce tension, the eyes of strategists around the world are fixed on this.
New chapter of Trump’s ‘America First’ policy
This stance of Donald Trump further clarifies his ‘America First’ policy. They are prioritizing direct dialogue with countries that could pose a challenge to global peace or US interests, while making former allies aware of their responsibilities. Sidelining Pakistan and talking directly to Iran shows that the old methods of diplomacy will not work in Trump 2.0. Countries like India can benefit the most from this change, which want America’s support against terrorism.
