Donald Trump's second term as president has begun with significant accomplishments, including a hostages-for-ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas and Mexico's compliance with his demands on drug and immigration issues. Trump's negotiating style, which favors short, sharp wars and quick resolutions, is likely to shape his future negotiations. Poland's defense minister and the new NATO secretary-general have also endorsed Trump's demand for NATO members to increase defense spending. Wall Street is optimistic about another Trump term, with the booming economy giving him a stronger position for international negotiations. However, Trump's goal of reducing American trade deficits may be hindered by the rising price of the dollar due to investor hopes and talk of universal tariffs.
