Two years ago, as Donald Trump was sworn in as the 45th president of the United States, a struggle both to shape and to interpret a new administration’s foreign policy began. As Trump’s second year in office comes to a close, it is at last becoming possible, as the Brookings Institution’s Thomas Wright puts it in a new piece, “to identify a singular Trump administration foreign policy.” Read our new collection to trace and understand how the past year’s major developments in U.S. foreign policy got us here. And then read Wright, Elizabeth Saunders and James Lebovic, and Eliot Cohen to understand how the third year of Trump’s foreign policy is likely to unfold—and what it will mean for the administration, for the United States, and for the world.
