Donald Trump’s reelection as the President of the United States spells changes to the established status quo of the international community. All states are likely to be impacted from the policy changes of the US and international sanctions created by the United States of America, which will dictate negotiation, finding new avenues, and developing partnerships. South Asia will be broadly impacted from the plays by Washington and counter moves by competitors such as Russia and China. South Asian markets in terms of development must leverage existing strengths, technologies and develop new friendships for prosperity and future of South Asian nations globally and stability domestically.
