Trump claims world is 'safer place now' as he receives inaugural Fifa peace prize
December 06, 2025
|The Guardian
Donald Trump has been named the first winner of the newly created Fifa peace prize, claiming: "The world is a safer place now" as he received the award at the draw for the 2026 World Cup in Washington DC.
Gianni Infantino, the Fifa president, gave Trump the peace prize in Washington, telling the US president: There is also a beautiful medal you can wear everywhere you want to go'
Gianni Infantino, the Fifa president and one of Trump's closest sporting allies, presented the honour onstage at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts yesterday, saying Trump had been selected "in recognition of his exceptional and extraordinary actions to promote peace and unity around the world".
"This is your prize, this is your peace prize," Infantino said, after Trump took the stage to accept the trophy, a medal and certificate. "There is also a beautiful medal for you that you can wear everywhere you want to go."
Fifa says the prize is for "individuals who help unite people in peace through unwavering commitment and special actions". The governing body has not disclosed details of the selection process, although a Guardian investigation found that a new "social responsibility" committee chaired by the controversial Myanmar tycoon Zaw Zaw will propose the process for future awards.
Trump, who has long sought international validation, attended the ceremony yesterday and accepted the award in front of Fifa officials, diplomats and invited guests.
