A former UK ambassador has not held back in his assessment of Donald Trump's presidency, describing it as a period of chaos and instability that harmed global diplomacy.
In a candid interview, the ex-diplomat painted a damning picture of Trump's leadership, accusing him of undermining trust in international institutions and alienating key allies.
A Presidency of Controversy
The ambassador highlighted several key moments during Trump's tenure that caused significant diplomatic headaches for the UK and other nations. From abrupt policy reversals to inflammatory tweets targeting foreign leaders, the former president's approach was described as unpredictable and often counterproductive.
Impact on UK-US Relations
Particular criticism was reserved for Trump's handling of the special relationship between Britain and America. The ambassador revealed how traditional diplomatic channels were frequently bypassed, with important discussions sometimes conducted through social media platforms rather than official meetings.
The comments come as Trump prepares for another potential run at the White House, raising concerns among foreign policy experts about what a second Trump term might mean for international cooperation.
