Donald Trump: If the peace talks between Russia and Ukraine are successful, Donald Trump will be able to show that he is the best at making deals, which is a term he has been pushing for a long time.
How will Donald Trump Benefit?
The war has been going on for years, using up Western resources and making allies weaker. A peace deal brokered by Trump would give him credit for what other leaders failed to do, solidifying his image as a world leader who gets things done.
Donald Trump: Win in politics on the world stage
Trump’s popularity at home would go up if he could keep the peace in Eastern Europe. His fans would praise him as the leader who ended a costly war, while people who aren’t sure yet might think that his foreign policy is practical and focused on getting results. With elections coming up soon, the deal would give Trump a strong story to tell during his campaign: peace without spending a lot of money.
Defense Deals: Making Money While Promoting Peace
Ukraine has put forward a $150 billion plan that includes buying defense equipment from the U.S. and making drones together. If it passes, it will send billions of dollars to American businesses, which will create jobs and help the economy grow. Trump could talk about this as a peace dividend for U.S. workers, changing a war in another country into a business win in the U.S.
Europe and NATO’s diplomatic power
Diplomacy around the world would also change if Trump helped make a peace deal. It would be seen as the U.S., not Europe or China, that holds the most power in ending one of the most complicated wars of the century. This would make America stronger in NATO, and Trump could say that his “America First” policy puts Washington back in charge of world talks.
Fuel for the campaign before the election
Putting an end to the war between Russia and Ukraine could be one of Trump’s main campaign issues. He could say that while other governments spent billions of dollars on a never-ending war, he brought peace and economic growth. This message is likely to hit home with U.S. people who are tired of being involved in other countries’ problems.
Fame and Legacy Around the World
The peace deal could make Trump more famous around the world, not just in politics and business. He would make it seem like Trump’s U.S. leadership still controls world affairs by ignoring Europe and highlighting China’s attempts to mediate. This could be remembered as the most important thing he ever did.
