Hello, I'm Lucy Hawkins.

From the BBC World Service,

this is The Global Story.

Donald Trump is the winner in what could be the most consequential US presidential election in recent history.

His victory comes in the context of multiple ongoing conflicts around the world and persistent instability in major global economies.

International leaders are flocking to congratulate Mr Trump,

but how might their governments be reacting behind closed doors?

Today we're considering how the newly minted President-elect could make his presence felt in the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine

and the Middle East, in China, Europe and beyond.

With me today is our diplomatic correspondent James Landau.

Hi James.

Hi.

And what a result.

Came quicker than many thought it would.

It's a surprise for many,

but I know you've been speaking to diplomats around the world,

embassies and residences around the world this week,

and I wonder what you think the reaction is to this result.

I think inevitably there's going to be a sense of shock simply because when you've been listening to the broadcast,

listening to the pollsters, telling everybody it's knife edge,

you know, touch and go,

don't know which way it's going to go.

To have such a decisive result as this is clearly going to come as a surprise.

Do I think the victory of Donald Trump has come as a surprise?

No, I think everybody has been realistic enough to know that this has always been a very clear possibility.

And preparing for it.

Well, the question is, that's a really good point.

Have they been preparing for it?

I've spoken to a lot of European diplomats about this,

and they all say, yes,

no, we must prepare for it.

And then I say, well, what are you doing?

Well, we can't anticipate it because we'll be annoying the previous incumbent if you start making assumptions about elections.

And, you know, we have to leave it up to the Americans to make their own decisions.

I think there is genuinely a sense that certainly in the European diplomatic world

that not enough has been done to so-called Trump-proof Europe from this future presidency.

OK, we're going to get into Trump proofing foreign policy and take a whistle stop tour around the globe for this episode.

And the conflict that comes to mind straight away,

James, of course, is Ukraine as it continues to battle Russia's ongoing invasion.

Remind us what Donald Trump has said before about the war in Ukraine

and what he'll do to bring an end to it.

Well, the first thing I always say is there's quite often a gap between what Donald Trump says and what he does.

And sometimes what he says can be contradictory.

so it's not always a good predictor of what he actually intends to do because sometimes it's part of a negotiating ploy.

Sometimes it's just difficult to work out because,

as I say, the statements are contradictory.

However, he has made it pretty clear that he wants this war to end.

He wants to be part of the process of making that war end.

He's spoken of doing a deal.

He's spoken of making calls to both President Zelensky and to President Putin.

during this period now when he's president-elect,

i.e. before he actually enters the White House,

he wants there to be some kind of a deal.

There's an expectation that US support will diminish in the long term.

The question is, what is the pace of that while any kind of talk of a deal,

a peace settlement, comes into play?

Let's bring you the reaction from Kiev.

Here's our Ukraine correspondent, James Waterhouse.

It is hard to see what security guarantees Ukraine can get to secure its long-term future.

That's certainly the argument from here.

But President Zelensky has a knack of when there are political difficulties,

when the war isn't going his way and it hasn't been for some time.

He tries to leverage this into future assurances and commitments from his allies,

and it will be no different with Donald Trump.

Our Russia editor Steve Rosenberg is in Sochi with this assessment.

Well, it feels like the Kremlin is going out of its way to give the impression

that it's not excited at all by Donald Trump's victory.

A Kremlin spokesman, Dmitry Peskov,

said that, as far as he knows,

Vladimir Putin has no plans to congratulate Donald Trump.

He said America is an unfriendly country which is involved directly and indirectly in a war with Russia.

Can I ask you about the relationships in this picture

and what difference that might make? we've already had a response from President Zelensky.

How would you describe the relationship between President Trump and President Zelensky?

And can we learn anything from that reaction that we've had already?

There is a relationship.

I wouldn't say it's very close.

I wouldn't say it's terribly warm.

What was interesting, what President Zelensky has said in response to the victory of Mr. Trump is

that he spoke of the importance

and how much Ukraine relies on what he called a strong bipartisan support of the United States.

And he also sort of hinted that,

look, a powerful Ukrainian army could play a role in European security.

In other words, he essentially made the argument to Mr. Trump,

I need your support.

But you know what?

I can also give some of that support back.

I know you want Europe to step up more on its defence front.

I could potentially help with that.

That was the message he was sending.

But, you know, let's not beat about the Russia.

The Ukrainians are very, very concerned about the uncertainty,

what a Trump presidency would involve.

And one of the things they're concerned about,

surely, is the fact that President Trump has been very warm towards President Putin at times.

We know he's an admirer of Vladimir Putin.

And he said as such,

while standing shoulder to shoulder with Mr Zelensky when they did a little photo op in New York.

So we have a very good relationship,

100

and I also have a very good relationship,

101

as you know, with President Putin.

102

And I think if we win,

103

I think we're going to get it resolved very quickly very work.

104

I really think we're going to get it.

105

I think we have more good relations.

106

Oh, I see.

107

You know, Mr. Trump likes to do a deal.

108

He likes to trade.

109

He wants to do a deal,

110

but he doesn't want to be seen to be rolling over to the Kremlin's demands.

111

That is the crucial point.

112

That is absolutely the crucial point.

113

And that's why Mr. Putin's attitude is really crucial here.

114

Because if Vladimir Putin reaches the conclusion,

115

now is not the time for me to do a deal.

116

I'm making gains in the East.

117

And so the question is then, what happens then?

118

If Mr. Trump has put forward a deal and said,

119

let's bang heads together.

120

And the Russians say, no,

121

we'll just carry on fighting.

122

At that point, does Donald Trump say,

123

OK, I'm going to give some more long range missiles to the Ukrainians.

124

And you know what?

125

I'm going to let them deep fire into Russia as deep as they want to go,

126

far as they want to go.

127

Donald Trump does not fear escalation as much as Joe Biden and his national security adviser,

128

Jake Sullivan, do.

129

Is another worry for the Ukrainians,

130

not just President Trump in charge,

131

but also what's happening with Congress,

132

that actually, you know, they are making decisions on how much support to give Ukraine,

133

how much money to send Ukraine as well.

134

And we've seen a massive tilt back to the Republicans.

135

Yeah, I mean, that will be a strategic blockage in the long run

136

that will make it harder to get these things through.

137

It's likely during President Biden's lame duck period,

138

he will use every sort of legal presidential power he's got

139

outside of Congress to keep as much money flowing to Ukraine as he can.

140

But once President Trump takes office,

141

once the new Congress is established,

142

yes, I think you're absolutely right, it will get harder.

143

Because there is a mechanism,

144

isn't there, for President Biden to release $5 billion?

145

Yes, a chunk of funds.

146

You can do a chunk of funds.

147

The question for Europeans is what can and should we do to fill that gap left by the Americans?

148

We'll get on to Europe in a moment,

149

but let's turn to the other big conflict,

150

which is the Middle East.

151

Israel continuing its war with Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon

152

and it remains unclear the extent to which direct engagement between Israel and Iran may continue to escalate as well, James.

153

But he's pretty popular in Israel, President Trump.

154

So, yeah, the Israelis are happy and not just the Netanyahu government.

155

I think, you know, Israelis in general thought

156

that they basically had a fairer crack of the whip under Donald Trump than they did in Joe Biden,

157

who they always saw as a sort of,

158

you know, an American who was always saying,

159

well, please don't do this and please don't do that.

160

The problem is this.

161

When Donald Trump was in power last time,

162

there was no war in the Middle East.

163

There is now.

164

The world has changed.

165

And so the question, the immediate question now is,

166

if in the next few weeks,

167

Benjamin Netanyahu says, right, I now want to target Iran's nuclear facilities,

168

something that the Biden administration has been very,

169

very firm about saying, no,

170

no, no, we are not going to support you in this.

171

But there's a real question now is,

172

will Donald Trump allow Israel a freer hand to fight the war in a way that it can't at the moment?

173

Lots of people say the Americans have not been restraining Israel enough,

174

but there has been some restraint.

175

Will that change under Donald Trump?

176

Or will he, as he as he has said,

177

be a peacemaker and say,

178

I don't want to get involved in other people's wars?

179

He might try and do both.

180

He might say to the Israelis,

181

I'm going to give you a free hand to complete it,

182

to finish it, to bring it to a close.

183

Our chief international correspondent, Lise Doucette,

184

is in Jerusalem, and she's been assessing the reaction of Israel's prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu.

185

It's significant that the Israeli prime minister,

186

Benjamin Netanyahu, has become one of the first foreign leaders to speak to Donald Trump.

187

And the Israeli readout of their conversation,

188

which was described as warm and cordial,

189

is said to have discussed Israel's security, including the Iranian threat.

190

Donald Trump has often urged Israel to,

191

in his words, finish the job.

192

We'll soon find out exactly what he means.

193

It remains to be seen,

194

too, how much leverage Donald Trump will have over Benjamin Netanyahu because no one else has had much so far.

195

Correct.

196

And with all these things,

197

any sense of personal slight,

198

any sense of being ignored,

199

suddenly the calculation can change.

200

Because with Mr. Trump, the lesson we learnt from his first term is personality is as important as policy.

201

James, what about the wider region?

202

They were pretty quick for Gulf states to come out and congratulate Donald Trump as well,

203

given what we saw with the Abraham Accords,

204

but also some of the things,

205

the relationship that they've been building up with the US.

206

Are they going to be happy

207

I think they will like the fact that Donald Trump will want to clearly step up pressure on Iran.

208

It's one thing that he's been quite vocal about in a relatively foreign policy free election campaign.

209

We know that Donald Trump has spoken about trying to sort of come up with the Abraham Accords Mark II.

210

In other words, the elusive deal between Saudi Arabia and Israel,

211

trying to normalise relations between those two countries.

212

Now, it's still seen a long way away from the fighting that we're engaged in now.

213

You know, you need to have some sort of peace settlement,

214

some kind of ceasefire, some kind of exchange, some kind of stabilisation.

215

Then you might just be able to get to a place where you can talk about broader political deals.

216

Time to look at China, James.

217

And we know that relations between the two countries,

218

they're not as bad as they were a couple of years ago.

219

They are still pretty icy,

220

though, and they could be set to change in a big way because of Donald Trump's approach to China,

221

particularly when it comes to what he considers to be the unfair trade relationship.

222

What do you think that could mean in terms of the U.S and its relationship with China?

223

OK, the first point is that there are already trade frictions between China and the United States,

224

and there would have been trade frictions too that would get deeper if Kamala Harris had been elected.

225

So this is a bipartisan thing.

226

So whatever Trump does would be a continuation of existing policy,

227

but with rocket boosters underneath it.

228

And by that primarily is his threat to impose 60% tariffs on Chinese goods entering the US market.

229

Now, if that's what he does,

230

the potential there is for a trade war.

231

And then the potential for a trade war that engulfs the global economy.

232

Many countries around the world,

233

if this happens, are going to have to make choices.

234

Do they go with the Chinese or do they go with the Americans on this?

235

because the Americans will put up a huge amount of pressure on all its allies to say,

236

we're doing this, you've got to do likewise.

237

In many ways, a lot of America's allies sort of had a holiday from this

238

because of the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East,

239

the run-up to this election.

240

Those pressures, the electoral pressure is now gone,

241

and I think it's going to make some tough choices.

242

And Laura Bicker in Beijing told us the latest on the relationship between China and the US.

243

Beijing will be bracing itself for the return of Donald Trump.

244

And for one reason will be trade.

245

And that is because during the last Trump presidency,

246

trade put tariffs on around $300 billion of Chinese goods.

247

And he's threatening to do so again.

248

And James, in terms of regional security,

249

do we know where President Trump sees the US and its relationship with Taiwan

250

and supporting Taiwan possible intervention if there was a conflict.

251

It's incredibly hard.

252

It's incredibly hard to know that.

253

That is in part because the Americans don't want us to know.

254

They want there to be some strategic ambiguity over this.

255

But also, we don't know whether or not Donald Trump actually will live up to his word of saying,

256

I'm not going to start new wars.

257

He loves to be the man who ends forever wars.

258

but equally is he somebody who's going to give up all US leadership in the world?

259

That's the really interesting question,

260

which is one that I don't think the Make America Great protectionism

261

and introspection of the first term ever really had to answer that question.

262

You mentioned Donald Trump and his way of thinking about America's place in the world.

263

When it comes to their more traditional allies,

264

particularly here in Europe, It looks very different in Europe now than it did when he was president before.

265

When you think about the rise of some of the more right-leaning parties in European countries,

266

Emmanuel Macron is the only major,

267

I think, surviving world leader.

268

How do you think he's going to deal with this new Europe?

269

He will try and deal with Europe,

270

as he did before, on a bilateral basis, on a transactional basis.

271

He will try and peel everybody off so he can do separate trade.

272

deals as much as he can.

273

It's very hard within the European Union.

274

And I think that he will continue to put more pressure on the Europeans to spend more on their own defense.

275

And there'll be usual rumbles threatening NATO.

276

I think the really interesting question is this,

277

is the Trump presidency going to be the wake-up call that Europe has been needing,

278

a catalyst that essentially gets the Europeans to say,

279

you know what, we've got to get off the pot and make some tough decisions about our own defence.

280

What about economic growth in Europe?

281

Is now the moment where Europe says, actually, you know what?

282

In the face of this economic threat,

283

if we are going to stay alive,

284

We have to agree a new plan to make Europe more competitive.

285

And thirdly, what about China?

286

Europe is divided about China at the moment.

287

Does the election of Trump change that thinking?

288

Does it wake people up in Europe?

289

Because at the moment, as I said at the beginning,

290

there's a lot of people who haven't really prepared for this.

291

You briefly mentioned the fact that he's always angry that Europe's not paying its fair share when it comes to defence,

292

and also that constant threat when he was last president that he would withdraw the US from NATO.

293

Does he have more leverage this time around on those two things?

294

I mean, do you think that NATO,

295

the threat to withdraw from NATO,

296

he could make good on?

297

Or could he encourage countries and successfully make them pay for more?

298

Look, I think his driving force here is not some sort of ideological hatred of NATO or anything like that.

299

It's just this sense that America is being taken for granted,

300

that the Europeans are free riders.

301

If the Europeans, as they have done,

302

can address that by increasing their defence expenditure,

303

which, you know, the numbers are creeping up.

304

At the moment, every NATO member state has to spend 2% of their national wealth on defence.

305

I think that target's going to have to go up.

306

I think that's going to have to go up to 2.5%, maybe even 3%.

307

Countries like Poland are already meeting that target,

308

and so we'll be fine.

309

The UK would be stretched.

310

A lot of other countries in the south of Europe would really struggle to do that.

311

A lot of people think he's an isolationist,

312

America First obviously being his sort of main platform.

313

But do you actually imagine

314

that America is going to retreat from its role as the world's leader on some of these big issues?

315

When we also know that Donald Trump likes a deal.

316

He likes to be seen to be making a deal.

317

He said to people he wouldn't mind winning the Nobel Peace Prize.

318

He has an ego.

319

maybe he is the one to close the deal on things like Ukraine and the Middle East.

320

The optimistic view is that,

321

yes, he's a disruptor, he's a changemaker,

322

he will generate fresh thinking on issues.

323

It might be on Ukraine,

324

it might be on the Middle East.

325

And that therefore, instead of a sort of slow,

326

gradual continuation of not quite giving enough support to Ukraine,

327

not quite constraining Israel enough under the previous regime, that could change things.

328

My own inclination is, you know,

329

he will engage in things in the world where they matter to his voters at home.

330

But the point is this,

331

is the world has already noticed that U.S influence is declining.

332

Countries around the world are forming more ad hoc relationships,

333

partnerships, occasionally alliances with other countries around the world.

334

And I think that Donald Trump will be quite happy for that to happen if it's nothing to do with him.

335

But could his tactics possibly work?

336

I mean, I have this great quote from him.

337

I don't want them to know what I'm doing.

338

He's talking about his allies, his adversaries, whoever.

339

Part of my value is the perception by adversaries and allies that I am unpredictable.

340

I mean, does he have this sort of huge strategic advantage that he just doesn't behave like anyone else I've negotiated with?

341

That is an advantage that means that,

342

you know,

343

Mr. Putin will find it probably harder to work out what Donald Trump will do than he will with Joe Biden.

344

Joe Biden has 40, 50 years worth of foreign policy baggage that allows you to know roughly where he's going to go,

345

less so with Donald Trump.

346

And I think that sense of uncertainty is useful in certain moments.

347

But it's not a strategic advantage.

348

If you are seen as a leader who will change his or her mind because of pressure,

349

because of changing circumstances, because of what a tweet you've seen,

350

then in that case, they will rely on that unpredictability unpredictability.

351

And if you can base your assumption on that,

352

then you can use that as a strategic gain when you're trying to negotiate with him or play him.

353

We know what is predictable about Donald Trump is that he's transactional,

354

he's bilateral, and he can be capricious.

355

But what is unpredictable is the immediate decision-making processes that sometimes can go in unexpected places.

356

It is going to be an interesting four years.

357

It's going to be all right.

358

James, thank you so much.

359

Thank you very much.
