President Donald Trump has wasted no time in showcasing his foreign policy approach in the early days of his second term. With a strategy of speaking loudly and wielding a big stick, Trump has made it clear that he intends to assert U.S. interests forcefully on the global stage.
One notable incident involved a threat to impose massive tariffs on Colombia after the country's president refused to allow a U.S. military plane carrying deported migrants to land. The Colombian president quickly relented in the face of Trump's tariff threats, signaling a willingness to comply with U.S. demands.
