The first 100 days of President Donald Trump's second term were a sharp departure from decades of consensus on the foundations and principles of U.S. foreign policy between the Republican and Democratic parties, which none of the 13 presidents who have alternated in power in Washington since the end of World War II disagreed upon.

No one expected Trump to handle global affairs and issues during his second and final term like his Republican or Democratic predecessors, nor the speed and intensity with which he moved to redirect his country's foreign policy away from the paths that have been stable for decades.

During the 100 days, Trump reflected broad ambitions and adopted decisive policies, adding to them more excitement by expressing his desire to expand his country to include the territories of new countries and regions, aiming to change the map of U.S. borders that have been stable for a long time.
