Erick Stakelbeck discusses the impact of the “Trump effect” in North America. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau resigns after facing pressure from his own party members following a meeting with President Trump. The Trump effect is also felt in Mexico, where President Claudia Sheinbaum is open to taking in non-Mexican illegal immigrants who will be deported by the US. Meanwhile, the Middle East remains a major challenge for the incoming Trump administration, with the situation in Syria becoming increasingly tense and Israel taking strategic control of key locations.
