El Periódico Mediterráneo - General11 September 2026 at 05:01

The article analyzes the relationship between the September 11, 2001 attacks and the election of Donald Trump, 25 years later. Charles Kupchan, a former advisor to the United States National Security Council and former member of the State Department's policy planning staff, was interviewed by EL PERIÓDICO to discuss this connection.

According to Kupchan, the September 11 attacks led directly to the election of Donald Trump. The analyst states directly that "the greatest legacy of 9/11 today is Trump," establishing a direct relationship between the terrorist attacks and Trump's political rise.

The article addresses how the past 25 years transformed US foreign policy, with the 2001 attacks having provided the conditions that would eventually lead to Trump's election as president.
