The inauguration ceremony, held at the US Capitol in Washington D.C., was attended by a diverse array of dignitaries, including former presidents, billionaire entrepreneurs, and other notable figures. This significant event has drawn global attention, with leaders from around the world extending their congratulations.

Trump’s Second Term and Inauguration Highlights
Donald Trump’s swearing-in on January 20, 2025, succeeded Joe Biden’s presidency, making Trump the second U.S. President, after Grover Cleveland, to serve two non-consecutive terms. The inauguration ceremony, moved indoors due to freezing temperatures, took place within the historic US Capitol Rotunda.
Trump’s return to office is laden with significant policy announcements. In his inaugural speech, he declared the beginning of “America’s golden age,” emphasizing his commitment to creating a proud, prosperous, and free nation. He outlined several key initiatives, including over 200 executive actions aimed at enhancing border security, boosting energy production, and reducing the cost of living.
One of the critical measures announced by Trump involves imposing a national emergency at the US-Mexico border, where he plans to deploy troops and additional manpower to address the ongoing tensions. He also vowed to end the “Catch and Release” policy, pause offshore wind leases, and withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord.
The ceremony was attended by a plethora of influential figures, including Joe Biden, JD Vance, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar represented India at the event, carrying a letter from Prime Minister Modi to the newly inaugurated president.
Trump’s administration is expected to have a profound impact on U.S. engagement in the Middle East, particularly concerning the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He claimed credit for the recent Israel-Hamas ceasefire and hostage release, which was facilitated in part by his newly appointed Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff.
As Trump embarks on his second term, his vision for a “proud, prosperous, and free” America is set to shape the nation’s future significantly. The global community is watching closely, eager to see how these promises translate into action.
