President Trump hasn’t even officially started his new term, and he’s already making the world a safer, better place. While Joe Biden and Kamala Harris sat back and watched the world burn—and even tossed a few matches themselves—President Trump’s mere presence has foreign leaders rethinking their entire strategy. Word is, Zelensky and Putin are now ready to talk peace, now that Trump’s back in the picture. Zelensky knows the gravy train has come to a screeching halt, and his endless cash flow is drying up fast.

Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed openness to dialogue with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump regarding the ongoing Ukraine conflict.
Addressing the Valdai Discussion Club in Sochi, President Putin indicated that Moscow would welcome discussions, particularly if Kyiv and Western allies demonstrate a real commitment to a peaceful resolution.
This statement marks Putin’s first public response since Trump’s election victory and sheds light on possible future diplomatic engagements between Russia and the US. In his remarks, Putin acknowledged Trump’s campaign promises to improve relations with Russia and potentially resolve the Ukraine crisis.
“I take this opportunity to congratulate him on his election as president of the United States of America,” President Putin said on Thursday. He also praised Trump’s intentions for peace, calling the former president’s willingness to address the Ukraine situation “worthy of attention.”
Trump, for his part, has suggested that he would pursue a swift resolution to the conflict if he assumes office. Throughout his campaign, he has criticized the Biden administration’s extensive financial and military aid to Ukraine, questioning its impact on US interests. Trump has also floated the idea of reducing American support for Ukraine, a move that would mark a significant shift from current US policy.
But it’s what he’s done in the Middle East that has people’s jaws on the floor. After meeting with President Trump at Mar-a-Lago, Israeli officials have announced they’re preparing a cease-fire deal with Lebanon, averting what could have easily been the spark for WW3.

This was a “gift” to President Trump from Netanyahu, who knows he needs the new president on his side.
A close aide to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Donald Trump and Jared Kushner this week that Israel is rushing to advance a cease-fire deal in Lebanon, according to three current and former Israeli officials briefed on the meeting, with the aim of delivering an early foreign policy win to the president-elect.
Ron Dermer, Netanyahu’s minister of strategic affairs, made Mar-a-Lago the first stop on his U.S. tour Sunday before traveling to the White House to update Biden administration officials on the state of Lebanon talks, a sign of how swiftly America’s political center of gravity has shifted after Trump’s electoral victory.
“There is an understanding that Israel would gift something to Trump … that in January there will be an understanding about Lebanon,” an Israeli official said. Like others in this article, the official spoke to The Washington Post on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive conversations.
This is winning, folks.

Right now, President Trump is leading the country more and far better than Biden has in nearly four years. The Washington Post piece goes on:
Trump has said he wants to bring an end to the wars in the Middle East, but he also told Netanyahu in a call last month to “do what you have to do” against Hezbollah and Hamas. It is unclear what impact, if any, the Lebanon proposal discussed at Mar-a-Lago would have on stalled cease-fire and hostage-release talks in Gaza.
“Netanyahu has no loyalty to Biden and will be focused entirely on currying favor with Trump,” said Frank Lowenstein, a former special envoy for Israeli-Palestinian negotiations under President Barack Obama who served during the transition to the first Trump administration. If 2016 is any indication, he added, “Trump won’t hesitate to act like he’s already president when he sees an opportunity.”
Isn’t it amazing how differently world leaders behave when they actually respect the President of the United States? Now that President Trump is back in the driver’s seat, these leaders—who’ve been running amok under Biden and Harris’s doddering “leadership”—are suddenly standing up straight and flying right. Why are they doing this? Because they know Trump is all business. He’s not messing around, and he means what he says.
Honestly, President Trump’s “peace through strength” agenda is exactly what’s good for America and the world, and this latest move by Israel is proof positive of that.
