The whole world is talking about US elections because elections are to be held here in November 2024. As per polls, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are neck to neck, and Trump will easily win the elections unless something major happens (lockdown, etc.).
Trump’s controversial statements
Recently, at a convention, Trump asked people, What can we do to make Israel bigger? He put forward the concept of Greater Israel, in which the lands of many surrounding countries will be occupied by Israel. He not only talked about expanding Israel at a time when Israel is already reported to have killed more than 40,000 people in Gaza.
But also threatened the universities of the US to cut down the funds if anti-Israel protests were held there.
Impact on India
Trump has been a very anti-Iranian president for a long time. Before Trump, India used to purchase crude oil from Iran at a very cheap rate. Still, when he came, oil sanctions were imposed on Iran, which caused many countries, including India, China, and Japan, to stop purchasing oil from Iran.
Dr. S. Jai Shankar’s prediction.
He has said that the problems will increase in the coming years and the situation may get a little worse. There are a lot of conflicts already happening in geopolitics, whether it is the Middle East, Ukraine-Russia military tensions, or Southeast Asia disputes.
Shifting politics in the Middle East
However, the last time Trump changed the entire geopolitics of the Middle East, he imposed an oil ban on Iran. At the same
time, under the Abraham Accords, many countries were forced to normalize relations with Israel, such as Morocco, and currently, the US is putting heavy pressure on Saudi Arabia to normalize relations. Also,
Mohammed bin Salman, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, had told the US lawmakers that I would be killed if I normalized relations with Israel.
Goals of Israel and Trump
Many American academicians say this is not a matter of air; Israel desires to control all lands, from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, including Lebanon, and a large part of Syria. Already, the heights of Syria have been crowned by Israel. Then a little bit of Turkey too, a large part of Iraq, a portion of Saudi Arabia, and the Suez Canal, so it will make Israel a powerful country economically in the Mediterranean.
Change in demographics
Israel is talking about capturing a lot of land, but where will the people come from? The population of Israel, is not even 1 crore, how will these people manage such a huge land? Will they invite Jews from America or Europe or Jews from other parts of the world and gradually increase the population?
