,
, ‘In his recommendation, he stated, “Trump has made significant contributions to world peace and is believed to be capable of making even more in the future.”‘,
,
, “He particularly highlighted Trump’s mediation of the ‘Abraham Accords’ during his first term, which normalized relations between Muslim countries such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, Sudan, and Israel.”,
,
, ‘He also mentioned the decision to supply Javelin anti-tank missiles to Ukraine during Trump’s first term, praising that “Trump laid the foundation for the international coalition supporting Ukraine today by showcasing global leadership in the provision of weapons in response to Russia’s brutal and illegal war of aggression.”‘,
,
, ‘He emphasized that “Trump could help Ukraine achieve a just, comprehensive, and sustainable peace based on the U.N. Charter and international law principles.”‘,

There are speculations that the Trump administration might pressure Ukraine to cede territory to Russia or accommodate demands from Russian President Vladimir Putin.’,
