Apologies

Our new President is making it a priority to "mend fences" and un-hurt feelings in Europe and the Middle East. Without a doubt, many countries who in the past had been our friends have a less-than-favorable opinion of us as a result of our previous President and his policies.

My question to you: While humbling yourself and apologizing is an effective way to fix problems here in the West, is this an effective and persuasive technique for a Western power to employ in the Middle East?
