Donald Trump’s claims regarding Greenland following Venezuela have triggered serious debates on the international stage within the context of the new world order. These statements draw particular attention against the backdrop of the global balance of power, the future of international law, and growing rivalry among major powers. Political analyst Ahmad Shahidov shared his views on the issue with ARB24 Television.
Ahmad Shahidov stated that Trump’s claims concerning both Venezuela and Greenland clearly demonstrate the United States’ increasingly power-based foreign policy approach: “This mindset raises the risk of international legal norms being pushed into the background. Bringing a strategically significant territory like Greenland into open discussion indicates that competition among major powers in the Arctic region will further intensify.”
According to the political analyst, these developments show that the new world order is entering a more unstable phase: “Such claims may encourage other power centers to take similar steps. As a result, trust within the international system is declining, confrontation risks are increasing, and security challenges are deepening, especially for small states.”
