Demócratas controlan el Congreso y buscan frenar la política exterior de Trump

Inicia sesión para fijar este evento

Reuters informó que, tras la victoria de los demócratas en ambas cámaras del Congreso de EE.  UU. el 4 de noviembre, declararon que limitarán las acciones exteriores unilaterales del presidente Donald Trump, incluyendo el conflicto en Irán, la ayuda a Ucrania e Israel, y el gasto militar en general.

Anteriormente, The Straits Times señaló que la posición debilitada de Trump después de las elecciones reduciría su capacidad de influencia, pero mantendría la política estadounidense en Asia impredecible, sobre todo en comercio, energía y seguridad. CNBC indicó que, aunque Trump conserva una amplia autoridad en política exterior, se espera que el Congreso demócrata aumente la supervisión de los conflictos en Irán y Ucrania. Al Jazeera informó que los países de la región Asia-Pacífico observaban de cerca las elecciones estadounidenses, esperando cambios en las políticas comerciales, arancelarias y de seguridad, aunque percibían pocas posibilidades de acción inmediata.
