Peaceful business. This is how Donald Trump wants to resolve world conflicts
Navy, Air Force and Land Forces soldiers stand in a pile with the flags of 50 US states. First, Prime Minister Armenia Nikol Paszynian drives the limousine. 30 minutes later, the President of Azerbaijan Ilham Alijew appears. Both men are at the head of the countries that They have been fighting with each other for decades.
The bloody conflict is to end with a meeting in the oval office. “Now you are friends, friends for a long time. You will have great relations – and if not, call me and I will do it,” said Donald Trump a few hours later, while his guests gave their hands in front of the world press cameras.
A picture that has a promise world from Washington: The US President once again provides peace.
“My most important heritage is to be the role of the conciliator,” Trump declared many times. On Friday, there is a particularly high obstacle on the road to achieving this goal: the US President meets Alaska with the Russian leader Vladimir Putin to talk to him about the end of the war against Ukraine. After his re -election, Trump promised to solve this conflict “within 24 hours”. However, Russian aggression continues to this day.
Since returning to power, the Republican devotes attention to various foci of conflicts. Regardless of whether there are tensions between India and Pakistan, a confrontation between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, or between Thailand and Cambodia – the emissaries of the American president act all over the world to lead to agreement.
– No state leader can achieve this. During the first six or seven months of office reached more peace agreements than any Nobel Peace Prize winner – says a high -ranking representative of the White House.
Two motifs
Trump's supporters praise the US President for using his position of the most powerful state leader to encourage enemies to talk. They praise his courage in thinking.
Experienced foreign policy experts perceive Trump's approach in a more diverse way. – Trump assigns solutions that others initiated. Or he claims that he has solved problems that have not actually been solved – says Stephen Sestanovich, Russian expert at Council on Foreign Relations. In addition, withdrawing from the nuclear agreement with Iran and the climate agreement from Paris, Trump created even greater problems.
In his second term, his second motif appears in his peace initiatives: financial interests. – In many cases, money is part of the formula. Governments know that Trump will attract attention if they attract his attention to lucrative contracts that can be part of the negotiations, “says Sestanovich.
An example is Armenia and Azerbaijan, where the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) is to be created – economic corridorwhich will allow Azerbaijan to freely access his autonomous exclava Nachiczewan. According to Trump, Armenia currently contains a “exclusive partnership” from the US to build a road, and American enterprises are “very interested” in investing large funds in the region.
Financial incentives and “America First”
Another known example is Ukraine, where at the end of April the US administration under Mineral agreements She secured the extraction of valuable metals of rare lands in exchange for investments. Or an unreal example of the Gaza Zone, which Trump wants to transform into an elegant seating oasis modeled on Dubai.
In addition to financial incentives, this approach meets one more requirement of the US President: “America First” [Najpierw Ameryka]. Proponents of the slogan “make America Great Again” [Uczyńmy Amerykę znów wielką] categorically reject the traditional US involvement in global conflicts.
However, if such commitment brings money, the support of Trump's voters for US intervention is definitely greater. – We send a powerful signal that the USA is back: with the slogan America First – one of the representatives of the White House confirms.

Currently, Trump focuses on resolving several conflicts. Mediation between Azerbaijan and Armenia was praised by the German foreign minister Johann Wadephul as “a new chapter in their history.” The peace treaty signed in Washington is “hope for many people in Armenia and Azerbaijan, who behind them have a long history of conflicts, displacement and suffering.”
Although many details of the agreement for the southern Caucasus are still unclear and radically it limits the impact of both Iran and Russia in the region, Trump's initiative is widely assessed as a historic step forward.
India deny
Trump also claims that prevented the nuclear war between India and Pakistan. At the beginning of May, the armed conflict between two atomic powers intensified after a terrorist attack. “I will not reveal what I did to solve this problem and why these two countries were more and more conflicted. However, I told them that better to trade than war” – commented the American president.
The Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi categorically denied that Trump was involved in mediation. “India has never agreed to mediation, they do not agree to her now and they will never agree to her,” he said.
In the coming weeks, Trump also intends to mediate in a long conflict between Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda. For this purpose, the presidents of Felix Tshisekedi and Paul Kagame are to come to Washington. Also in this case, the US economic interests are in the foreground. Trump is considering investments because both countries have large deposits of rare lands.
The President of the United States also uses economic pressure as a means for peace conversations between hostile Thailand and Cambodia. At the end of July, Trump declared to the rule of these countries that he would suspend ongoing negotiations on customs duties if they are not ready for dialogue. Just a few days later, the parties agreed during the meeting in Malaysia a weapon suspension.
