ABSTRACT We examine voting behavior of Western allied countries in line with the United States over the period 1949 until 2019. Descriptive statistics show that voting in line with the United States on resolutions in the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) was on average 7.2 percentage points lower under Donald Trump than under the preceding United States presidents. The policy shift is especially pronounced for resolutions dealing with the Middle East. The decline in common UNGA voting behavior is statistically significant for the resolution agreement rate and the absolute difference of ideal points. The results do not suggest that the alienation of Western allies is not driven by ideological distance based on a classical leftwing-rightwing government ideology scale.

特朗普总统任期内的国际政治结盟：在联合国大会上投票

摘要我们研究了1949年至2019年期间西方盟国与美国保持一致的投票行为。描述性统计数据表明，根据美国对联合国大会（UNGA）决议的投票平均达到7.2个百分点在唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）领导下比在美国前任总统领导下更低。对于涉及中东的决议，政策转变尤为明显。对于决议达成率和理想点的绝对差异，联合国大会一般投票行为的下降在统计上是显着的。结果并不表明西方盟友的疏远不是由基于经典左翼—右翼政府意识形态量表的意识形态距离驱动的。
