dc.descriptionThe year 2025 has marked a significant shift in the global political landscape, characterized by a renewed emphasis on unilateralism and national interest. The return of the Trump administration to the White House has reinforced a broader global trend in which major powers increasingly prioritize sovereignty and overt unilateralism over multilateral cooperation. This shift poses serious challenges for the international community’s ability to address climate change and pursue a coordinated sustainability agenda. In recent years, global collaboration led to key achievements—such as the Paris Agreement and joint efforts in green trade and finance—that reflected a shared commitment to environmental goals. However, the current trajectory suggests a move towards fragmentation, with rising trade tensions, new tariff regimes, retaliatory measures, and a general deprioritization of environmental commitments.
