America is going to choose its next President.
There is a close contest going on between Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and Republican leader Donald Trump. It is being said that this biggest election of America is going to be very important for other countries also.
It is believed that whether Harris or Trump wins, it can have a big impact on many countries like China and Iran.
China
China is considered America’s biggest economic rival. Now Trump has already talked about trade war against China. He had imposed tariffs worth $250 billion on Chinese imports in the last term.
This year, Trump had said that if he wins, he will increase tariffs on Chinese goods by 60 to 100 percent. Also, even if the Democrat government comes to power, there are less chances of retreating from the tariffs implemented during Joe Biden’s tenure.
Russia and Ukraine
According to CNBC report, it is believed that the Trump administration and a section of Republican leaders may be less inclined to provide further military aid to Ukraine.
In such a situation, Ukraine’s capabilities in the war against Russia may be affected. According to reports, Kiev is largely dependent on foreign aid to continue the war. Also, Trump has earlier said that he can end the war in 24 hours.
It is believed from his statement that he can stop the funding to Ukraine to force an agreement with Russia.
It is believed that without America’s help, Ukraine may lose a large part of its land. Here, Harris has said that if she wins, her administration will help Ukraine as long as needed, but till now it is not clear what the meaning of the statement was.
According to the report, the Harris administration may also face difficulties in providing economic support to Ukraine. Actually, it will depend on which party has dominance in Congress.
Israel
In the report, a survey by the Israel Democracy Institute found that 65 percent of the participants believed that Trump would be a better choice in terms of Israeli interests.
Whereas, 13 percent were in favor of Harris. Trump had said, ‘Anyone who is Jewish or loves being Jewish and loves Israel and if he votes for a Democrat, he is an idiot.’ Even during his first term, Trump considered Jerusalem the capital of Israel.
Here, Harris is being accused of being vague about Israel. He also criticized Israel’s military strategy.
However, in a bid to change her anti-Israel image, she said in August that she would always stand with Israel’s right to defend itself. She had said, ‘And I will always ensure that Israel has the ability to defend itself.’
iran
The report quoted Reuters report as saying that regional and Western officials believe that Trump’s victory could be bad news for Iran.
It is said that he may give the green signal to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for steps like attacking Iran’s nuclear sites, which Biden had opposed.
According to the report, Harris may adopt Biden’s stance of reducing tensions in case of victory. In his message to Iran after the Israeli attack in October, he had asked not to retaliate and stressed the need to de-escalate the region.
Speaking to the channel, Michelle B Rees, Fellow at the Royal United Services Institute think tank, had said that there is little possibility that the Harris administration will change its current stance.
He said, ‘We do not know his view of the world, his policies or his preferences for senior cabinet posts.
I believe Harris will also continue to follow Biden’s foreign policy. This includes paying special attention to good relations and diplomacy with colleagues and friends.
