Can Barack Obama help U.S. out of troubles? (3)

(People's Daily Online)

17:01, November 09, 2012

In spite of withdrawing troops from Iraq, Obama did not help Iraqi political factions to make a compromise. On the issue of Afghanistan, he cannot find a political solution in line with the interests of the United States, either.

In addition, the United States did also not make any significant political progress in dealing with Palestinian-Israeli conflict and U.S. relations with Iran, the DPRK and Pakistan.

The observers believe that Obama did not mention such issues as the European debt crisis, the sovereignty disputes over islands in East Asia and US-DPRK relation, which indicate that he has not set an ambitious foreign policy yet.

The trouble is that any issue will affect the overall situation of the world. Therefore, Obama will face not only the "cliff" but also "landmines" in the new four-year term.

If US keeps blocking Chinese investment in the US, restrict exports to China and establish all sorts of protectionist policies, US will never get better under any president. US will fall to the economic abyss.
