During the trump administration, an assertive American policy toward china was developed, emphasising the economic aspect of the bilateral relationship. Most of the actions taken by President trump have been maintained by President Biden, who has also adopted a more comprehensive strategy to deal with China. This covers the dispute over democracy vs. authoritarianism, industrial policy, human rights, and pro-Taiwan statements. But in general, Republicans may be attempting to appear as though they are universally pushing back against China.
Although the white house has consistently expressed its support for Ukraine, the war-torn nation may face challenges due to Republicans' control of Congress. The Republican Party's various factions may have an impact on this. Future Speaker McCarthy had declared last month that if Republicans regain the majority, they will not provide a "blank check" for Ukraine. As many Republicans, particularly those who support Trump's "America First" stance, question the need for government expenditure abroad at a time of record-high inflation at home, McCarthy's remarks reflect his party's growing scepticism about financial support for Kiev.
The Biden administration has been desperately attempting to restart nuclear discussions with Iran, but Republican control of congress may prove to be the final nail in the coffin. Republicans have criticised President Biden for not doing more to support demonstrators who have been protesting the country's clerical government for weeks.
