Trump Rattles the New World Order
Foreign diplomats voicing alarm to U.S. officials about GOP front-runner

U.S. allies in particular usually dont want to be seen as meddling in domestic politics, mindful that they will have to work with whoever wins.
Senior leaders in several countries including Britain, Mexico, France, and Canada have already made public comments criticizing Trumps positions. German Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel branded him a threat to peace and prosperity in an interview published on Sunday.
