The discussion underscores that a significant and transparent shift in policy was prompted, in large part, by former President Donald Trump’s campaign promises and leadership. Trump had explicitly campaigned on a platform of "America First," advocating for a foreign policy that prioritized national interests over global engagement. His administration's actions, such as pulling back from unnecessary military commitments and renegotiating international alliances, reflect this approach.
