| Summary/Abstract |
Within almost two weeks of assuming office on 20 January 2017, President Donald Trump demonstrated excessive belligerence by signing a series of executive orders that now threaten to unbalance the existing world order, whose implications seem perilous for the world. His executive orders seem now to be the antithesis of his campaign promise of “creating stability” in the world by converting the world more unstable. From the stances on China, Mexico, Australia, immigration law, banning entry of people from six Muslim majority countries and threatening some other countries, Trump has insulted, provoked and picked fights with many in the first two weeks in office. As analysts world-over remain busy examining the policy consequences of the Trump Presidency, they equally worry identifying the sector which Trump would finally choose to launch his first serious international conflict. A conflict-situation is ripe in many fronts and to trigger one could be of Trump’s choosing.
