Allies Recalibrate as 2026 Davos Trump Foreign Policy Shakes Global Order

2 min readSource

At Davos 2026, world leaders are reconsidering their ties with China as Donald Trump's unpredictable foreign policy regarding Venezuela and Greenland fractures the global order.

They're shaking hands, but the fists remain clenched. At the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos this week, world leaders warned of a fractured global order, taking veiled swipes at the United States. According to SCMP, analysts suggest that Donald Trump's political unpredictability has left allies on edge, forcing a major recalibration in their approach to China.

Impact of 2026 Davos Trump Foreign Policy on Western Strategy

Recent aggressive moves by the US President have sent shockwaves through diplomatic circles. These include strikes on Venezuela, the abduction of Nicolas Maduro, and a renewed push to take over Greenland. These actions, combined with tariff threats against European allies, are widely viewed as direct assaults on the established international system.

Beijing Frames Itself as the New Protector

In stark contrast, China has seized the opportunity to position itself as the defender of global engagement. On January 23, 2026, President Xi Jinping spoke with Brazilian President Lula da Silva, calling for a joint effort to uphold the central role of the United Nations and international justice.

US actions in Venezuela and Greenland have projected strong imperialist tendencies to its allies, most of which fear being exploited.
