Trump, who shuns multilateralism, has promised massive tariff increases on Chinese goods and other imports as part of his “America First” agenda.

Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, CEO of UAE green energy group Masdar, said the United States remained a key market, despite changes in political leadership, and the company would continue expanding its footprint there.
“A lot of red states in the US … deploy a lot of renewables. They are very supportive of energy, so we don’t really see any impact, honestly,” he said, referring to Republican-controlled states.
