This study attempts to explore the for-eign policy preferences of right-wing populist actors in a general sense.Based on the conceptual analysis of right-wing populism and a review of related literature,this pa-per proposes hypotheses regarding these actors'decision-making patterns,behavior modes,and content of foreign policy.Through empirical examination of the United States,Hungary,Turkey,and India,the study finds that right-wing populist actors tend to show consistent preferences in centralizing diplomatic decision-making,establishing diverse partnerships,and emphasizing bilat-eralism.However,they exhibit selective attitudes towards international institutions,immigration and refugee issues.Right-wing populist actors do not necessarily implement policies that challenge international institutions or exhibit xenophobia after ascending to power.Their deliberate maintenance of flexibility and selective decision-making reflects the ideological characteristics of right-wing pop-ulism,which neglects long-term strategy and values identi-fication.This is also an important approach for such ac-tors to achieve immediate foreign policy benefits,main-tain mobilization after taking office,and gain electoral advantages.
