As Trump returns to the White House and the U.S. political arena is shaken, many new variables have emerged in the world situation.

Perhaps in order to submit a petition to the United States, von der Leyen has told Trump that the EU can consider purchasing more liquefied natural gas from the United States to replace the supply of Russian natural gas.

Von der Leyen’s attitude is very clear: In order to avoid a trade war between the United States and Europe, the EU is willing to make appropriate concessions in exchange for continuing friendly exchanges with the United States. It is still unknown whether Trump will target allies and force the EU to pay for US interests. But what is certain is that compared with Harris winning the election, "Trump's comeback" has made the EU, Japan and South Korea even more uneasy.

At this moment, three very subtle things happened in the world.

The first thing is that Japan’s political scene is shaken, and the United States is facing bad news. Not long after he was elected as Prime Minister of Japan, Shigeru Ishiba, who succeeded Fumio Kishida, dissolved the House of Representatives. Shigeru Ishiba's move set a new record, but it aroused dissatisfaction among the Japanese people, and his approval rating fell as a result.

Shigeru Ishiba's purpose in doing this is simple, that is, to change and reshape the Liberal Democratic Party and increase its chances of winning the election.

Sure enough, on the 11th, Shigeru Ishiba got his wish and was re-elected as the Prime Minister of Japan. As for whether Shigeru Ishiba can break the Japanese people's doubts about him and lead Japan to a better position in the world, it is still unknown. In the past few years, because Biden has relaxed restrictions on Japan and the United States intends to use Japan to pressure Russia, Japan has ushered in an opportunity to expand its military.

But these days are different. Japan is very clear that Trump’s foreign strategy is “America First.” Once Trump enters the White House, the United States' attitude toward Japan will undergo a 180-degree reversal. At that time, Trump will once again ask Japan to shoulder more military expenditures for the United States and submit more orders to the United States.

Japan’s Kyodo News Agency believes that Trump’s attitude towards allies is very harsh and his words and deeds are unpredictable. Trump's victory means that the economic, diplomatic and military cooperation between the United States and Japan will change. Japan is very worried about this. At the moment, one of the things that Japan is most worried about is that Trump threatens to withdraw its troops and requires Japan to provide more protection for the US military.

In the next few years, Trump is likely to amend the U.S.-Japan Status Agreement to increase the status of U.S. soldiers in Japan.

Ishiba Shigeru believes that the United States’ move will damage Japan’s sovereignty.

How to meet the tough challenge brought by Trump has become a problem that Shigeru Ishiba has to face.

The second thing is that there is an earthquake in German politics. Is Merkel expected to make a comeback? The results of the French parliamentary election have worried Macron. The rise of left-wing and right-wing forces in France means that the centrist represented by Macron will be under greater pressure.

The problems faced by Scholz seem to be more difficult than those faced by Macron. Because Germany is governed jointly by the Social Democratic Party, the Green Party and the Liberal Democratic Party, Scholz, as a Social Democratic Party member, has been greatly constrained. With Russia and Europe imposing mutual sanctions and Germany's economic situation not optimistic, Scholz was struggling.

The result is this: the call for Merkel to return to politics remains high in Germany. Scholz, who was recently dismissed as German Finance Minister, is likely to be forced to step down.

Germany’s opposition party, the Christian Democratic Union, has made a strong statement, calling for a general election and a confidence vote. The latest poll results in Germany show that the support rate of the Christian Democratic Union is at the top of the list. German President Steinmeier even directly stated that he is ready to dissolve the German parliament.

In other words, under the premise that Scholz is not favored, Merkel, who has huge influence in German politics and people, has an opportunity to return to politics. You know, Merkel is a member of the Christian Democratic Union.

Of course, the "sudden rise" of Wedel may also become the new German Iron Lady. Previously, Merkel had stated many times that she had no intention of returning to the political arena.

After Trump enters the White House, a rift is likely to appear between the United States and Europe. As the leader of the EU, Germany's choice will have a huge impact on the future of the EU and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Once Wedel takes charge of Germany, Russia will really breathe a sigh of relief. This is not the result that France and Ukraine want to see.

The storm is coming, let’s see how Scholz will act.

The third thing is that South Korean President Yin Xiyue publicly apologized. Yin Xiyue is indeed very busy during this time as he is busy congratulating and currying favor with Trump, speaking harshly to Russia, and giving an explanation to the Korean people.

Because of the mistakes made by his confidants, Yin Xiyue chose to publicly apologize to the Korean people. Yin Xiyue said that despite his efforts, some things still happened that worried the Korean people.

Yin Xiyue believes that as the president of South Korea, he should not have made excuses to defend himself. Everything was caused by his negligence and immorality. Therefore, he needs to sincerely apologize to the Korean people.

Judging from the statement, what Yin Xiyue said seems to be quite sincere, but the Korean people may not appreciate it. Since becoming the president of South Korea, Yin Xiyue has made too many serious mistakes in the past few years. Affected by this, Yin Xiyue's support rate has declined.

There is another problem facing Yin Xiyue, that is, how to deal with Russia.

Yin Xiyue hinted at such a thing a few days ago. In response, South Korea may provide weapons to Ukraine. This made Russia furious.

What can be expected is that if South Korea provides a large amount of military assistance to Ukraine, Putin will never sit idly by and wait for South Korea to receive a reciprocal counterattack from Russia.

What happened in the United States, Germany, Japan and South Korea all shows that the world is facing unprecedented changes. In order to safeguard the interests of their own countries, all major forces will use their best efforts. This is an era where challenges and opportunities coexist.

In many cases, it is not important what the United States says, nor is it important what the United States does. No matter who is in the White House, the United States will never give up its pursuit of hegemony. What we have to do is to continuously improve our economic, technological and military strength, and move towards a broader sea of ​​stars step by step.
