Katie O'Neill: 特朗普政府的外交政策核心是“美国优先”议程,旨在使美国更强大、更安全、更繁荣。为此,特朗普政府暂停了新的对外援助项目,并对包括加拿大和墨西哥在内的传统盟友征收关税,以此作为报复手段。虽然特朗普政府对俄罗斯的态度有所转变,但仍坚持要求俄罗斯结束在乌克兰的战争。对于中国,特朗普政府继续采取强硬立场,维持关税威胁,并试图寻找美国公司收购TikTok。这些政策的实施可能会对全球援助项目和国际关系产生重大影响。作为一名记者,我亲眼目睹了华盛顿的变化,特朗普的支持者涌入,使得整个城市的气氛与以往大不相同,这预示着美国政治和国际关系即将发生重大转变。 Roland Oliphant: 特朗普政府上任伊始就迅速采取行动,重新定义美国在世界上的地位。通过冻结对外援助项目、退出国际组织和设置关税壁垒,特朗普政府明确表示将把美国及其人民的利益放在首位。他对前任总统的批评,以及对威廉·麦金莱总统的赞扬,都暗示着他有意效仿麦金莱的扩张主义政策。这些举动不仅对美国的盟友,也对其敌人产生了深远的影响。作为主持人,我试图通过与专家的对话,解读特朗普政府的政策意图及其对国际社会的影响。
