America’s Allies Are No Longer Waiting for Trump to Leave by Vivian Salama
A depressing read on the ramifications of Trump's nationalist foreign policy. How relationships with should-be allies have degraded:
This isn’t a coordinated revolt against America or a wholesale turn toward China. Most U.S. partners see Washington as an essential partner and don’t fully trust Beijing. But nations that were once firmly in the American orbit are concluding that they cannot rely on the U.S. to provide the same leadership, markets, technology, and military protection that it has for decades. And that, foreign officials told me, is true no matter who wins the presidency in 2028.
