The País published a cover on November 8, 2026, titled "The World After Trump's Defeat", where it analyzes how the republican electoral outcome has directly affected the legitimacy of the head of state and his international relations.
Political Failure and Loss of Authority
According to The País article, the Republicans' performance in the national elections of 2024 marked a critical point for the presidential figure. A significant drop in votes favored opposition candidates who reject aggressive foreign security policies and adopt a more open stance toward multilateral alliances.
Geopolitical Impact: Iran and Israel
The report highlights how the United States now faces a decline in its influence over Iran, where the new government has adopted a more negotiable posture towards sanctions imposed by Washington. Regarding Israel, it is mentioned that relations between Tel Aviv and Washington have become less coordinated due to differences in regional security strategies.
Reduced Global Influence
In addition to direct impacts on key regions such as the Middle East, The País notes that the United States' international position is being reevaluated by strategic allies, including European and Asian countries seeking more balanced diplomatic alternatives to American leadership.
