Lukashenko: Trump can go down in history as president of peace

MINSK, 18 December (BelTA) - Current occupant of the White House Donald Trump can go down in history as the president of peace, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said in an interview with the U.S. media company Newsmax, BelTA has learned.

The head of state noted that his U.S. counterpart has accomplished a lot in foreign policy.

“It does not matter whether he stopped seven or eight wars or conflicts. But that is his aim. He is achieving some success. If this conflict in Ukraine is stopped with Trump’s help, he will make history. He won’t need any Nobel Prize. He will go down in history as the president of peace. Which is not something you can say about the others after Roosevelt [Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who led the USA from 1933 until his death in 1945],” the president said.

Aleksandr Lukashenko emphasized that Donald Trump stands out in this regard, especially when compared to that U.S. administration “which tried to forcefully bend the whole world, by using both economic and military means.”
