Will global powers unite to end the Russia-Ukraine war, curb Iran’s nuclear ambitions, and support Israel in its regional conflicts?
Over the past decade, the geopolitical landscape has undergone its most dramatic shift since the Allied victory in World War II. Global power dynamics have changed significantly, largely shaped by two American leaders: President Donald Trump and former president Joe Biden.
While pursuing starkly contrasting foreign policies, their separate decisions have directly impacted Iran, Israel’s security, and global stability.
Until 2016, the international order remained largely intact under the framework established after WWII, with the United States leading the Western alliance.
Under president Barack Obama (served 2009-2017), US foreign policy prioritized multilateral diplomacy and international cooperation. He championed the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), or Iran nuclear deal, designed to restrict the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program in exchange for economic relief.
While the agreement aimed to ease Middle East tensions, Israel viewed it as a strategic misstep, arguing that it gave the Iranian regime financial freedom to continue supporting terrorist groups and developing advanced missile systems.
