period of the presidency of Donald Trump<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It took almost three years since Donald Trump was elected in 2016 to get\nthe current US President to get rid of the accusation that his campaign was\nbased on Russian penetration both on the internet and on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, we have the &#8220;Russian period&#8221; that described the internal\npolitical scene of the President Trump which began on the day of his election\nand officially ended on 25 July 2019 when special prosecutor Miller put an end\nto his testimony in Congress for any involvement of the Russians for the\nbenefit of Trump and at the expense of Clinton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The &#8220;Ukrainian&#8221; period of the presidency of Donald Trump<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the same day, the 25<sup>th<\/sup> of July 2019 begins atypical and a new period that will characterize the presidency of Trump, the &#8220;Ukrainian&#8221; period, and given the call made on that date by President Trump to the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, with the purpose-and as the revelations say-to put pressure on the Ukrainian President using US aid to Ukraine, with the aim of exploring the business activities in the Ukraine of Mr. Hunter Biden, son of Joe Biden, former US Vice-president and candidate for Democrats for the 2020 presidential elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/320px-UNGA_48796017461.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1358\" width=\"392\" height=\"261\"\/><figcaption><strong>Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky with US President Donald Trump in New York City, Sep 2019<\/strong><br>Photo by The White House from Washington DC<br>https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Public_domain<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>So, according to the revelations made by informants, President Trump was\nsupposed that he suggested to the Ukrainian President that he would delay the\nplanned U.S. financial-civilian-military assistance (which has been approved by\nCongress) to Ukraine if it does not progressed directly into a cleansing\noperation at the expense of the son Biden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The unpleasant thing about this case is that the impression has been made\nthat several American officials and agents seem to have worked abroad to help\nfulfill President Trump&#8217;s political needs and not to promote interests of the\nUnited States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fact that the President of the United States seems to have\n&#8220;used&#8221;-as a bargaining tool-delaying the necessary assistance to\nUkraine which has been approved by Congress in order to put pressure on its\nnew-elected Ukraine President causes disappointment for the US allies and\nespecially the EU and the UK, while this fact is extremely outrageous for a\nsignificant proportion of the American political system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Congress has already embarked on President Trump&#8217;s launching process on the\nbasis that he tried to harness the influence of foreign power to benefit\npolitically within the US, from a country like Ukraine that is in an extremely\ndifficult position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ukraine has been steadily pursuing a pro-European-Western strategy in the\nlast five years, causing Russia&#8217;s outrage that annexed the Crimea (2014), which\nuntil then belonged to Ukraine, losing Ukraine and the controlling of its\nstrategic importance Eastern regions which are dominated by Russian-speaking\nseparatists who are supported by Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>President Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Ukrainian&#8221; period of his presidency began by\nprovoking the angry reaction of the Democrats who-without great chances of\nsuccess-set out the procedures for his dismissal or coercion in resignation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once again, as in \u201cRussian period\u201d, the first word and in the &#8220;Ukrainian&#8221; period of presidency Trump will have the US Justice, as President Trump and his support system refuse to cooperate with Congress in the ongoing investigation by creating a serious constitutional problem-who controls who. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The political and institutional crisis in the US as well as the division of the American electorate will continued during the election period in the US Presidential elections of 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The &#8220;Chinese&#8221; period of the presidency of Donald Trump<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, undeterred President Trump, without caring about all\nthat Congress has embarked on, asks the Chinese government to check the\nbusiness activities in China of the son of the former US Vice-president,\nbecause the son of Joe Biden withdrew from his professional activities in\nUkraine but remains active professionally in China. In fact, President Trump invited China to participate in\nthe US election campaign as a regulator and modulator of the electoral outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This behavior of President Trump shows that all he cares about is how to\nwin his potential rival by any means indifferent to whom he asks for favors and\nfor the consequences of this political behaviour by inaugurating at the same\ntime the &#8220;Chinese period&#8221; of his presidency. China, of course, is not Ukraine who is in a difficult\nposition, nor is it politically pressed by the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But here there is a serious political dilemma and a problem of a serious moral and political nature. President Trump&#8217;s policy &#8220;America First&#8221; led the USA into a trade war mainly with China (and the EU) in order to reduce the trade deficit between the US and China. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Asking President Trump to do him favors by China, he automatically puts on the table of the election campaign for the US presidency&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; China as the main regulatory factor that is in a commercial and not only war with the USA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In particular, let&#8217;s say that China finds &#8220;real&#8221; or\n&#8220;fabricated&#8221; elements for what President Trump is asking for. What\nwill be the exchange in return as much on as under the negotiating table\nequally, that will be given to China in order to give this information to\nPresident Trump?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did they stop the crossings of the US Navy in the South Sino Sea? Is Taiwan\nleft out from the US protection umbrella? Did the commercial war stop after\nPresident Trump win the election? Should be made a laxer agreement on the\nimposed tariffs in China? Or to remove the pressures for China&#8217;s full entry\nboth in the EU market with 5G network technology and in the US market after the\nNovember 2020 US elections?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How will the American voter be persuaded that his President has not made a\ntransaction with the &#8220;enemy&#8221; of his country to strike his political\nopponent, with real or fabricated evidence and what is the price for American\ncitizens from this possible transaction?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seeing the American citizen that his President deals with the enemy of his\ncountry in order to politically strike his American political opponent, what\ncan he believe about his President? That has no moral boundaries in order to\nachieve his goal. By creating at the same time President Trump, himself\njustified suspicions and doubts about his choices and methods to American\ncitizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How will the US President tell the truth\nto the American voters when it is generally accepted that\nthe biggest lies are said before the wedding, during the election period and\nafter the hunt and fishing?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The current US President Donald Trump won the US presidential election in 2016 under the slogan &#8220;America First&#8221;.
