Post World War II, the world established a new global order with the establishment of United Nations and its governance systems to foster trade, economic development, peace, justice, human rights, environment and climate protection, with the major powers acting as guarantors and key financiers, among others.

The second US Trump presidency appears set to disrupt several of these systems, as it prioritises US economic and political interests. After two months in office, the Trump agenda is gathering momentum, with its impacts being felt by nearly every country.
