President Trump’s Peace Through Strength: Renewed American Leadership and Global Security

The White House

President Donald J. Trump will always put the American people first — and that includes his unwavering commitment to an America First foreign policy. Through bold actions rooted in Peace Through Strength, President Trump has ended conflicts, dismantled threats, and rebuilt U.S. military dominance, making the world safer for Americans and restoring respect for the United States on the global stage.

  • Ending Wars and Fostering Peace: As the “President of Peace,” President Trump has successfully ended eight long-standing conflicts, including those between Israel and Hamas, Israel and Iran, Armenia and Azerbaijan, Egypt and Ethiopia, Pakistan and India, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda, Kosovo and Serbia, and Cambodia and Thailand. Meanwhile, President Trump’s Gaza Peace Plan secured the release of all remaining hostages, established a Board of Peace for regional security and prosperity, and paved the way for lasting stability in the Middle East.
  • Neutralizing Global Threats: Through Operation Midnight Hammer, President Trump decisively eliminated Iran’s nuclear weapons capability via targeted military strikes, escalated sanctions, and intelligence operations. Operation Absolute Resolve led to the capture of Venezuelan dictator and indicted narcoterrorist Nicolás Maduro and his wife, while Operation Southern Spear eliminated 150 narcoterrorists in strikes against fentanyl-trafficking vessels, stemming the deadly flow of drugs into America.
  • Strengthening Military Might: President Trump signed into law the largest-ever military budget, unveiled the “Golden Dome” for total orbital supremacy in homeland defense, and mobilized partnerships to rebuild America’s defense industrial base, restore shipbuilding, and reshore critical industries in aggressive pursuit of our own national interests.
  • Boosting Alliances and Deterrence: President Trump secured a historic agreement requiring NATO members to raise defense spending to 5% of GDP. He successfully pressured Panama to withdraw from China’s Belt and Road Initiative, achieved a ceasefire with Houthi terrorists in Yemen to restore safe navigation in the Red Sea, and redesignated the Houthis as a Foreign Terrorist Organization.
  • Countering Terrorism and Securing Borders: U.S. forces under President Trump’s direction eliminated key ISIS and Al-Qaeda leaders and arrested the ISIS-K terrorist behind the Abbey Gate attack, while the Trump Administration also designated multiple Latin American cartels and Muslim Brotherhood branches as terrorist organizations.
  • Releasing Americans and Protecting Citizens: President Trump has secured the release of dozens of detained Americans abroad, including hostages from Venezuela, Afghanistan, Hamas, Russia, and Belarus.
  • Reforming Foreign Aid and Diplomacy: President Trump banned funding to UNRWA due to its ties to Hamas, imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court for overreach, reinstated the Mexico City Policy to prevent taxpayer dollars from supporting foreign abortions, and ordered U.S. embassies to fly only the American flag. He directed the State Department to always put America First, ensuring diplomats align with U.S. interests.
  • Revitalizing the U.S. Military: The armed forces have achieved their best recruiting numbers in 15 years, with President Trump reinstating discharged service members from the COVID-19 vaccine mandate, barring transgender enlistments, and restoring traditional names to military bases like Fort Bragg and Fort Benning.

President Trump’s America First approach has not only deterred adversaries, but also forged new partnerships — making the world safer and America more secure.
