President Donald Trump on Friday accepted the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize during the 2026 World Cup draw at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino presented Trump with the prize. 

The award — formally titled FIFA Peace Prize: Football Unites the World — was announced Nov. 5 as FIFA’s new annual honor recognizing individuals whose actions advance peace and unity, the organization said.

"Well, thank you very much. This is truly one of the great honors of my life and beyond. Awards. John and I were discussing this. We saved millions and millions of lives," Trump said in accepting the award. 

Trump later added, "The world is a safer place now."

Trump accepted the award at the outset of the draw carried live by Newsmax. The draw is held for FIFA to group qualified national teams, setting the matchups and overall structure for the World Cup, which begins in June 2026 across the United States, Mexico, and Canada.

Infantino has repeatedly praised Trump’s diplomatic efforts, saying the former president “deserves” a peace prize.

“Football stands for peace,” Infantino said in unveiling the award, adding that it will honor those “who unite people, bringing hope for future generations.”

After Trump publicly voiced interest in winning the Nobel Peace Prize — which ultimately went to Venezuelan democracy advocate MarĂ­a Corina Machado — FIFA later announced it would present its own Peace Prize at Friday’s World Cup draw.

White House spokesperson Davis Ingle applauded Trump’s selection, saying, “The United States of America has never been more respected or successful than it is now under President Trump’s historic leadership. America is the hottest country in the world right now, which makes us the perfect country to host one of the greatest sporting events in history — the FIFA World Cup 2026.”

Trump and Infantino, who has been FIFA's president since 2016, reportedly have had a close relationship since Trump's first term, when the U.S. won the right along with Mexico and Canada to host the 2026 World Cup.

During a visit to the Oval Office in 2018, Infantino gave Trump souvenir red and yellow cards, joking they could be used on the media.

During the FIFA Club World Cup draw in December, Trump sent a prerecorded message while his grandson Theodore Kushner and daughter Ivanka Trump made the ceremonial first pick.

Trump later joined Infantino on the field to present the Club World Cup trophy after Chelsea won the tournament in July.

Who said 'Keep your friends close and your enemies closer'?

Some believe it was Sun-Tzu, a Chinese general and military strategist (c. 500 BC). However his quotation was different. He said, "Know your enemy and know yourself and you will always be victorious." And while "Michael Corleone" did say that in the movie The Godfather Part II, the actual origin of the quote was from Machiavelli in "The Prince" which is the definitive primer on how to be a dictator.

The first part of the quotation means that you always want to keep your friends close to you because they are people you can trust and rely on.

The second part of this means that your enemies are always going to be out there seeking to harm you so you want to keep an extremely close eye on them, in order to make sure that they are not going to hurt you.

Overall, it means that you should always know what your enemies are doing. As a war tactic, know what the enemy is doing so you don't get ambushed.

(Researchers note: Over the last 20 years of the research that I have done, I’ve never found a direct connection from President Trump to Soros. The connections only seem to surround him, and because of this I find him to be an honorable man. I have respect for him and am proud to call him my President. Those that are attacking him, I’m finding are not honorable and seem to have questionable funds in their bank accounts. I believe anyone working for We the People and using our tax dollars should have annual audits to keep them accountable.)
