William Heg: I am not a fan, but Trump’s effect may be positive policy

Former British Foreign Secretary William Heg says that the turmoil caused by President Donald Trump’s policies may lead to a positive and amazing reorganization of ideas and parties through Western democracies.

Hug has given examples from the French Revolution in the 1990s, which led its extremist policies, to major changes in the policies of other countries.

He pointed out that the first weeks of the Trump administration did not go to the point of the French Revolution, which led to a war with neighboring countries, but in a world where news is spread in seconds and trade is transmitted freely across many borders, the effect of turmoil in a great power is much faster than it was two centuries ago.

He explained that there is a reorganization of ideas, and sometimes the parties take place in almost all western countries, and in many of them, it can be said that Trump’s influence will be great as in America itself.

Lifeline

For the main parties such as liberals in Canada or Christian Democrats in Germany, or the Labor Party and Conservatives in Britain, Trump’s policies can be a lifestyle of her from dumping with populism waves, it is the way to return these moderate parties to fit and consistency, it is a clarification moment in which anyone with his open eyes can see the real world and not delusion that everything is fine.

He continued to say that it has suddenly turned out that countries that cannot control their borders, are not strong and effective, and depend on others in all new technologies, and accept that many of their residents are sick and have no hope to defend themselves, you must do something about it and quickly.

He stressed that you do not have to be enthusiastic about Trump to believe that his influence on politics in other places could be positive. If the parties of the center and the oath of the middle learned in some respects and are decisively responding to the challenge it represents in other aspects, then their chances of seeing the parties at the maximum political spectrum will improve, and in this process they can make many basic changes in the performance of their governments.

3 aspects

Trump’s influence outside America comes in 3 aspects:

• the first; Show that the modern state is not unable when it comes to addressing the intractable problems that cause misery to its citizens. Immigration has slowed through the Mexican border since he took office, and this has shown that this is not just a matter of monitoring of the borders, but it is a change in the rules. The voters who see Trump can control immigration, will not accept that their governments cannot.
• the second; Reducing the cost of the government, whatever we think about the methods, which seem in principle and chaotic, the motivation to reduce bureaucracy and make the administrative state more responsive to democratic desires is intended. In Britain, the Conservative Party promised to trace the effect of America, as well Last week, the Public Health Authority demolished.
• And the third; Encouraging defense spending, and getting rid of the restrictions imposed on borrowing in some countries while spending on social welfare is reduced everywhere.

Ethical

Hig drew attention to an important aspect of Trump’s practice of applying his policies, which is free of moral faith. Canada is a victim without a clear reason, Greenland is desirable although it is an ally land, Putin’s treatment as a friend despite the killing of hundreds of thousands, Zelinski humiliation on television, the sudden stop of American long -term programs around AIDS in Africa, and so on.

He said that the strength of this part of Trump’s influence is to say to people and without declaring that the strength and effectiveness of the democratic state is part of a moral system, and that its spread and respect in the world depend on the ability to distinguish between right and wrong; The abuse of the use of superpower brings resistance and rejection.

The writer emphasized that during the next four years, Trump will be a vital evidence of the need to establish such policies.
