FIFA announced the creation of the FIFA Peace Prize, a new award aimed at recognizing figures who have performed actions considered extraordinary in promoting peace. The first person to be distinguished was the President of the United States, Donald Trump, a decision that generated surprise and widespread public discussion.
The organization highlighted the role of the North American president in several diplomatic processes, including references to agreements related to the Gaza Strip. The ceremony was attended by Gianni Infantino, who highlighted that this award will be given to personalities whose performance is seen as exceptional in the search for global peace.
The trophy given to Trump is a large gold piece, representing several hands holding a ball. The prize also includes a medal and a certificate justifying the choice.
The FIFA president also took the opportunity to praise Trump’s work, referring to the significant growth in ticket sales at events organized by the institution, something he considered a tribute to the sport itself.
