Very soon, Donald Trump will be back in the White House as the US President.
It's a change of power that's expected to have far-reaching consequences for the United States — and also for the rest of the world.
Leaders from America's neighbors, here in Europe, and other capitals around the globe are waiting to see what the new US president will do once he returns to the Oval Office.
During Trump's first term in office, he snubbed some of America's traditional European allies, and pursued closer ties with autocrats like the North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Trump also famously said he wanted a better relationship with Russia. Now, Vladimir Putin's Russia is at war with its democratic neighbor Ukraine, and both sides are pinning their hopes for the future on the new US administration.

The Russian strikes - hitting vital energy facilities in the coldest weeks of winter - were led by Vladimir Putin’s Tu-22 and Tu-95 strategic bombers. The onslaught was seen as instant revenge for Tuesday’s Ukrainian aerial strikes on Russia, the heaviest of the almost three year war. In particular, Putin was rattled by Ukraine’s use of British Storm Shadow and American ATACMS missiles which hit key defence facilities including a chemical plant in Bryansk region.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission has filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk for not disclosing his 5 percent stake in Twitter in a timely manner in early 2022, ahead of his takeover of the platform later that year.
The SEC says this created an artificially low stock price that deprived Twitter stock owners of as much as $150 million. Musk's attorney called the filing a ''sham".
Also in this edition: we see how Mexico is preparing for Trump's second term in office and the looming threat of tariffs.

At the start of 2025, there is a lot of discussion about territory Ukraine may have to give up in any future peace negotiations with Russia. The Telegraph visited Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second city, in the far Northeast, to better understand how people live their lives under the very real threat of being overrun by Russian forces. An elementary school which was the scene of a vicious fight in the first week of the invasion is sealed off now, empty but for the bodies of dead Russian soldiers still inside. But even under daily bombardment, the city lives on. Children are taught in underground schools and the national theatre performs in a specially-designed bomb-proof basement. Further north - just 15 miles from the Russian border - the village of Tsyrkuny sits in a restricted zone to which The Telegraph was only given access by embedding with Ukrainian special operations forces. Humanitarian aid is organised from a building that used to be a children's theatre. The lights are still up, but there’s now a missile embedded in what was once the stage. Outside, the war grinds on. The people in this part of Ukraine do what they can to continue living, even as death lies all around them. #kharkiv #russia #ukraine
