Location: online / Chatham House, 10 St James’s Square, London SW1Y 4LE

Think tank: Chatham House

This event hosted by UK think tank Chatham House will discuss what to expect from a second Trump administration.

The return of President Donald Trump to the White House represents a significant moment for both US foreign policy and geopolitics. Following Trump’s comprehensive election win, the incoming administration possess a strong mandate to pursue its foreign policy agenda.

Priorities for the returning Commander-in-Chief include the implementation of a strict tariff regime, notably targeting China, US support for Ukraine and involvement in the Israel-Gaza conflict. Beyond these three considerable geopolitical challenges, the returning President will look to shape a foreign policy platform grounded on ‘America First’ principles.

Following the inauguration, join the panel of experts to analyse President Trump’s remarks and take a look ahead at what to expect over the coming four years.

Event chaired by Dr Leslie Vinjamuri.
