High Stakes in Washington: Global Attention on President’s Key Address Amid Economic Pressure and Rising Tensions

Published February 24, 2026, 05:00 PM

A major political moment is unfolding in the United States as President Donald Trump is set to deliver his State of the Union address to Congress on February 24. The speech is expected to focus on the economy, inflation, tax policy, healthcare costs, and foreign policy priorities, with possible new initiatives aimed at addressing affordability concerns for Americans.

The address comes at a time when economic growth has slowed, inflation concerns remain significant, and political debate over trade policies has intensified. Analysts believe the administration will use the speech to reassure voters and strengthen its political position ahead of upcoming elections.

Recently, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down parts of the administration’s global tariff policies, adding uncertainty to future economic strategies. At the same time, international tensions, including issues related to Iran, are also expected to feature prominently in policy discussions.

Experts say the speech could influence not only domestic policy direction but also global economic and geopolitical dynamics, drawing significant international attention. �
