‘All hell will break out’: 3 foreign policy takeaways from Trump

LA Times  

Although President-elect Donald Trump will not take office for almost two weeks, he is already making his “America First” mantra a priority — and it may include other parts of the globe. Trump proposed renaming the Gulf of Mexico and would not rule out using military force in Panama in a meandering news conference that touched on several fiery foreign policy points Tuesday. ‘Gulf of America’ As always, Trump’s focus quickly turned to the southern border, where he said the administration would rename the Gulf of Mexico to the “Gulf of America.” “Which has a beautiful ring,” he said. “The sovereignty and independence of our country are not negotiable.” When a reporter asked Trump on Tuesday whether he would commit to not using “military or economic coercion” in Panama or Greenland, Trump’s answer came swiftly: “No.” Trump also added that negotiating Panama’s maintenance of the canal was one of the failed legacies of the late President Carter, whose funeral Trump is scheduled to attend this week.
