«Spontaneous Leadership» Disease

Trump tweets in the morning hours that the US will introduce a further increase in their tariffs on Chinese products - does he know what the consequences are? In addition, all US companies should stop their activities in China and withdraw from the country? Is there a legal basis for this, and is this even meaningful, possible - with what kind of long-term consequences?

The example of the US president is affecting Europe: parts of the Amazon rainforest are burning, and French President Macron does not want to ratify the trade-agreement with the Mercosur states (Brazil is only a member of this free trade area). On Twitter he uses wrong, because old pictures of the burning forest.

That large parts of the Amazon forest are burning is a disaster!

But leadership must and can act proactively! From competent leaders in world politics and in companies one must expect that they analyze prospectively and initiate solutions!

Why did Europe not perceive that President Jair Bolsonaro relaxed the development of Amazonia in early summer? The fundamental policy of Brazil considerung preservation or not of the Amazon region is important, not the forest fires. So the European Union has to adopt ans implement a forceful policy to talk and negotiate long-term with powerful and self-confident countries as Brazil obviously is one!

Global politics must be long-term, not short-term and short of breath!

Successful leadership is always based on sound analysis and long-term orientation. Everything else will be a nightmare!
