Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th President on January 20, 2025, and immediately signed executive orders to reverse key policies from the previous administration, including withdrawing from the Paris Agreement and the World Health Organization.
He declared two national emergencies: one for energy independence and another to tackle illegal immigration. Critics argued his actions were heavy-handed, reigniting debates on immigration reform.
Trump also mischaracterized Spain as a BRICS nation in a press conference, drawing international criticism and confusion. He further suggested imposing a 100% tariff on Spanish imports, straining relations.
His first day highlighted his bold leadership style, marked by controversial moves and diplomatic blunders that will shape his presidency.
