2024: POPULAR POLLS

The 2024 elections reflected global trends of polarization, nationalism, and demands for economic and social reforms. These elections not only changed national political landscapes but also had far-reaching implications for international relations and the balance of power worldwide.

However, the integrity of elections is paramount. When elections are free, fair, and transparent, they ensure the voice of the people is heard and can prevent violent uprisings or social fragmentation. As such, successful elections contribute to both domestic stability and the promotion of democratic ideals on the global stage. In a world that is increasingly interconnected, upholding democratic norms through elections helps create a more stable and predictable international order.

Here is an analysis of the most famous elections in 2024 that reshaped the political landscape globally:

imageUNITED STATES: DONALD TRUMP'S RETURN TO POWER

Background: The 2024 U.S. presidential election was pivotal as Donald Trump became the first president since Grover Cleveland to serve two non-consecutive terms. He contested against the strong contender Kamala Harris.

Key Issues: Trump's campaign focused on addressing economic challenges, immigration reform, and resolving the Ukraine conflict. His return promised significant changes in U.S. foreign and domestic policies.

Impact: This election highlighted the deep divisions in American society and signaled a potential shift in the global order, particularly regarding U.S. relations with allies and adversaries.

INDIA: PM NARENDRA MODI'S THIRD TERM VICTORY

Background: Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) secured a third consecutive term, cementing his status as one of India's most influential leaders.
