While Trump faces many challenges, Putin and Xi Jinping increasingly consolidate domestic power and enhance their international status.

Russian President Vladimir Putin won a major referendum recently, when 78% of voters agreed with the revised constitution, which included a provision that allowed him to run for another two terms.

Putin has been in power for the past 20 years as the President or Prime Minister of Russia.

Chinese President Xi Jinping signed on Friday to pass the Hong Kong security law, which is said to be a landmark for the future of the special zone.

The revelations in the memoirs of John Bolton, a former national security adviser, or the controversy over the information that Russia offered to reward the Taliban for killing American soldiers in Afghanistan, made Trump's last days of June even more difficult.

When difficulties besieged, Trump even thought of the prospect of losing the election at the end of this year.

Nic Robertson, a commentator for CNN, said it was no coincidence that Xi and Putin pushed their goals to consolidate their power and influence as Trump's first term came to an end.

"Putin is retaliating. He believes the United States has ruined the Soviet Union before. He wants America to suffer," analyst David Ignatius wrote in the Washington Post.

Meanwhile, White House press secretary Sarah Matthews still praised President Trump as "a world-class negotiator who has consistently benefited the US in the international arena".

However, sharing with Carl Bernstein, CNN editor, many former senior US officials make other comments.

Three years ago, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov came to the Oval Office one day after Trump fired James Comey from the position of FBI director.

Two months later, Trump met privately with Putin on the sidelines of the G20 conference.

Former US security adviser John Bolton wrote in his memoir "The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir" that "Putin might have to laugh because of what

Analyst Robertson said that now Putin has the opportunity to be "lifetime president" to pursue the goals that he has set.

President Xi Jinping's experience with Trump is different.

Robertson said a former Chinese ambassador, who had many years of working in Europe, once told him that Trump intentionally prevented China from becoming a high-tech advanced economy.

"The current challenge for Trump and his successor is to show Beijing the US influence in Asia will be greater, along with allies to prevent China's destabilizing acts," Robert Blackwill

All of this is in Xi's calculation of Trump.

In a speech last month, US national security adviser Robert O'Brien said that Washington's mistaken response to Beijing's plan to enforce security laws was "the biggest failure in US foreign policy."

Many historians believe the current debate is not whether Trump's presidency will influence Xi and Putin's decisions, but the way the US president has changed the world.
