The re-election of Donald Trump as President of the United States has been received with a mixture of acute trepidation and excitement. It is clear that Trump’s victory is a significant shock to the current fragile equilibrium in the world, says FIIA Director Hiski Haukkala.

Donald Trump’s return to power has generated heated debate over its possible ramifications and what can be expected in the future. In the new FIIA Snapshots, a collection of short comments, FIIA experts address this debate by covering different fields of international politics and what the new Trump administration might mean from their perspective.

The Snapshots features contributions from Hiski Haukkala, Katja Creutz, Maria Lindén, Ville Sinkkonen, Charly Salonius-Pasternak, Cordelia Buchanan Ponczek, Mikael Mattlin, Harri Mikkola, Arkady Moshes, Manuel Müller, Matti Pesu, Sinikukka Saari, Antto Vihma and Marco Siddi.
