Strategic Competition in the Second Trump Administration
The strategic competition between the United States and the People’s Republic of China (PRC) emerged prominently during Donald Trump’s first administration. Policies such as tariffs and trade restrictions, initially implemented under Trump, were subsequently maintained and expanded under Joe Biden’s administration.
Now, as the makeup of the second Trump Administration takes shape and following the President’s priorities outlined in his inaugural address, the Wilson Center is convening its leading experts on China, the Indo-Pacific, Russia, and the Middle East. Join us for a discussion on the potential trajectories of strategic competition in the coming years, focusing on how the administration’s policies may shape relations with key global players and impact regional dynamics.
