Former US President Trump Hails Malaysian PM Anwar Ibrahim as "World Peacemaker"

Washington D.C. – Former U.S. President Donald Trump recently lauded Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, praising him as a "world peacemaker" for his successful mediation in a conflict involving two nations. Speaking at a public event, Trump recounted a conversation he had with Anwar approximately a year ago, where he encouraged the Malaysian leader to facilitate peace talks. "I told him, you know, you have two countries that are fighting right next to you. We need a third place. We need a sort of a neutral place, right?" Trump stated. He expressed his belief that Anwar was uniquely positioned to act as a mediator. According to Trump, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim undertook extensive diplomatic efforts, engaging in numerous phone calls and productive discussions that ultimately led to a ceasefire agreement. Trump referred to this breakthrough as the "Kuala Lumpur peace accord." He emphasized the significance of this achievement, declaring, "You saved two countries, you are a world peacemaker." The former president highlighted the importance of choosing "prosperity and peace over needless bloodshed and war." He added that witnessing such a resolution was "beautiful to see" and personally more gratifying than other pursuits. This commendation from a former U.S. President underscores Malaysia's growing role in international diplomacy and conflict resolution, particularly within the ASEAN region.
