    United States & the Global Trade Shift How America Is Reshaping World Trade in 2026 and Its Impact on Developing Nations Washington, D.C. — Global trade in 2026 looks very different from what it was a decade ago. The era of unlimited globalization has given way to a more strategic, security-driven economic order . At the center of this transformation stands the United States.

  Trump’s Greenland Gambit: A Strategic Clash Over the Arctic WASHINGTON — In early 2026, the geopolitical spotlight has shifted sharply toward the Arctic as U.S. President Donald Trump escalates a long-standing and highly controversial pursuit: asserting American interest in acquiring Greenland , the vast, sparsely populated island that is an autonomous territory of Denmark. His public remarks, militant tone, and broad strategic rationale have triggered diplomatic rebukes, alarm among NATO allies, rising local resistance in Greenland, and complex debates over sovereignty, security, and international law. For decades, the idea of the United States buying Greenland was viewed as an odd historical footnote — first floated by Trump in 2019 during his first presidential term. Now, it has resurfaced with renewed intensity, leaving global leaders, defense analysts, and local Greenlandic voices scrambling to assess, react, and respond to what some are calling a watershed foreign policy...
