The U.S. presidential election ended with a relaxed victory for Republican former President Donald Trump.

Trump, who is returning to the White House as the 47th U.S. president, has signaled a major change, saying he will "fix everything in America."

I'll connect with a correspondent at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort to find out about the local situation. Correspondent Lee Seungyoon!

[Reporter]
It's at the Mar-a-Lago resort in West Palm Beach, Florida, home to former President Trump.

How is the atmosphere there?

[Reporter]
Yes, the atmosphere is very bright as the home of former President Trump.

Citizens are cheering for Trump's election, and there's a festive atmosphere all over the city of Palm Beach.

The Mar-a-Lago resort has been used as former President Trump's residence since 2019, and has also been used as an office since he stepped down as president, and meetings with Republican politicians have often taken place here.

Trump was angered by the FBI's raid on the U.S. Capitol in August 2022 in connection with the 2021 riot over the U.S. Capitol, and the victory of the presidential election is expected to make the background at every important moment in the future.

Former President Trump declared victory early, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, Trump moved to the West Palm Beach Convention Center, where supporters gathered, after he was deemed to have won the vote while watching the vote from his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida.Former President Trump, who was on the stage with his family, including

Melania and his son, congratulated his supporters here by declaring his de facto victory in the presidential election.

Trump has promised to go back to the White House and fix the country Biden and Harris have broken.

Former President Trump will officially take office on January 20th next year, and he will soon set up a transition committee and start devising a second administration.

Trump is expected to be the oldest president in history by age at the time of his inauguration, and the president who leaves the Oval Office and returns after winning the election again.

Listen to former President Trump's remarks.

[Donald Trump / Former U.S. President: It will help heal America. We have a country in need and that country is in very dire need. We are going to fix our borders and fix everything in this country and today's room we made history for a reason and the reason is to fix this country.]

In the end, the presidential contenders decided the winner or loser, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, the seven contenders who said they would decide the owner of the White House divided the mood when they ruled in favor of Trump.

Former President Trump was the first to secure victory in North Carolina among the competing states, followed by Georgia.

Georgia lost to President Biden by 12,000 votes four years ago, and this time it won by more than 130,000 votes, making a decisive contribution to Trump's victory.

With Vice President Harris in a tight spot as Trump took two Sun Belt contention states, even Pennsylvania moved to Trump, and the atmosphere began to shift sharply.

Pennsylvania is where Harris made her determination to win by staging an intensive campaign in the final days of her campaign.

It was 2 a.m. local time that Pennsylvania's victory was certain, and shortly after that, Trump appeared at the Palm Beach Convention Center in Florida and declared victory.

A lot of changes are expected with former President Trump in power, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, it is.

Former President Trump cannot serve three terms as president under the U.S. Constitution, so his term in office will be four years, making it impossible to serve consecutive terms.

So with just four years given, Trump returns to the White House and pushes for his first term in office. It is expected to expedite the unfinished "America First" policy.

In the future, the U.S. diplomatic stance after World War I, which has intervened in international disputes by claiming to be the world's police and the leader of liberal democracy, is likely to face a major shift over the next four years.

First of all, Ukraine, which has drawn the war against Russia for two years and nine months with enormous support from the Biden administration in the United States, is expected to continue the war or stop it in the future.

The U.S. alliance-oriented stance in the liberal democratic camp, which has continued to the Biden administration, is also expected to change to a deal-oriented relationship when the second term of former President Trump's presidency is launched.

The South Korea-U.S. alliance, where 28,500 U.S. troops in South Korea have played an important role under the South Korea-U.S. Mutual Defense Treaty, is also likely to be embroiled in a turmoil over former President Trump's demand for a large increase in defense contributions.

As for North Korea, former President Trump, who held three summits with Chairman Kim Jong-un in his first term in office, is likely to engage in bold top-down diplomacy with North Korea, bringing about a change in the situation on the Korean Peninsula.

In terms of trade, former President Trump has pledged to seek to rebuild the U.S. domestic manufacturing base by significantly strengthening his protectionist stance, which uses expanded tariffs as a weapon.

If this is carried out in earnest after entering the White House, there will be a lot of rupture with South Korea and the European Union, which have signed FTAs with the United States.

In terms of border security, the second term of Trump's administration is expected to carry out large-scale deportations of illegal immigrants and pledges to close the southern border.

In addition, the Biden administration's enhanced climate crisis response policy is also likely to sharply weaken its momentum along with former President Trump's massive implementation of fossil energy development pledges.

Republicans retake Senate majority following Trump's possible re-entry into White House?

[Reporter]
Yes, along with the presidential election, the House and Senate elections were held, and the Republican Party took away the Democratic district and became the majority.

So far, Republicans have won the Senate majority for the first time in four years, with victories in Nebraska, West Virginia and Ohio.

Both the White House and the House could not rule out the possibility of Republicans taking it.

There are also observations that if this happens, Trump will have unwavering power.
