Washington, January 20 (NationPress) On the brink of assuming the role of the 47th President of the United States, Donald Trump addressed his followers at a celebration rally, asserting that he will bring an end to the Ukraine conflict and quell the turmoil in West Asia, alongside initiating a bold initiative to expel illegal immigrants.
President-elect Trump provided a glimpse into his upcoming inauguration address and the series of executive actions he intends to implement on his first day, albeit without delving into details.
He is set to be inaugurated as the 47th President at noon Eastern Time on Monday, with the ceremony relocated to the Capitol Rotunda due to extremely cold weather.
"I will bring an end to the war in Ukraine," Trump declared to supporters at the rally held at a sports venue in Washington DC on Sunday.
"I will halt the chaos in the Middle East (known as West Asia in the West) and avert the onset of World War Three. You have no idea how perilously close we are."
Ukraine has managed to resist Russia's 2023 invasion primarily due to the backing of a coalition of Western nations led by the US. Outgoing President Joe Biden has pledged his administration to a commitment of doing whatever it takes, with any ceasefire or truce being a decision for Ukraine to make.
President-elect Trump has previously expressed his desire for the war to conclude, but his recent declarations leave little room for Ukraine to decide its path.
Trump has already involved himself in West Asia, with his special envoy for the region, Steve Witkoff, being part of the US team that facilitated the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas that was enacted on Sunday.
Trump has attempted to claim credit for bringing the negotiations to a close after months of discussions, while Biden has resisted any notion of sharing accolades with his forthcoming successor.
The President-elect reiterated his commitment to swiftly terminate all illegal entries into the US.
He mentioned that he would make announcements during his inaugural speech on Monday that would represent "the most aggressive, sweeping initiative to restore our borders the world has ever witnessed."
He stated his intention to roll back climate regulations to facilitate exploration and drilling for oil, which he referred to as "liquid gold." He also aims to revive domestic companies, endorse 'Buy American' and 'Hire American' policies, reduce taxes and government red tape, and enhance transparency in governmental operations. To support this goal, he indicated that "in the coming days," he would unveil previously undisclosed records regarding the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, and Martin Luther King Jr..
