00:10priorities in a return to office.
00:13Here are the America First foreign policy promises he's made for his second term.
00:19The president-elect has said he will reject the advice of generals, bureaucrats, diplomats,
00:24lobbyists, and defense contractors who have pushed for war and replaced the, quote, war-mongers
00:30and frauds and failures in the government with, quote, competent national security officials
00:35who believe in defending America's vital interests above all.
00:39Trump, who offered broad support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his
00:44first term, has also vowed to bring peace in the Middle East, where tensions have been
00:49rapidly escalating since the start of Israel's war with Hamas more than one year ago, but
00:55has said little about how other than urging Israel to, quote, finish the job.
01:01In September, Trump said he would reinstate the, quote, famous travel ban that stopped
01:06people from some predominantly Muslim countries from visiting the U.S. and expanded to include
01:11refugees from, quote, terror-infested areas like the Gaza Strip.
01:16The president-elect has promised to take a hard stance on China by pressuring the country

01:47workers, families, and businesses can come down, his policy plan says.
01:52President Joe Biden re-entered the Paris Climate Agreement after Trump withdrew in his first
