Trump's inauguration took place in the U.S., where he addressed key themes in his inaugural speech, outlining his vision and priorities for the nation.

On January 20, Monday, Donald Trump, who became the 47th President of the United States, delivered a speech during his inauguration. In his address, which was broadcast from the Capitol building, he made no mention of Russia's aggression against Ukraine.

ZMINA has prepared a summary of the key points highlighted in the speech.

Trump announced his intention to declare a state of emergency at the southern border of the United States. He explained that he plans to deploy military personnel to this area to stop the "invasion" of illegal migrants.

In addition, the newly elected president announced plans to declare a state of emergency in the energy sector and implement a national program for drilling new oil fields. He also promised to actively combat rising prices and inflation, noting that the U.S. would restore its status as a leading producing country.

Trump also mentioned a change in the approach to taxation: instead of raising taxes for U.S. citizens, he plans to impose tariffs and taxes on foreign nations. To this end, he announced the creation of an external tax service that will handle the collection of duties, tariffs, and income from foreign sources. According to him, this will allow for "significant financial contributions from other countries."

In his speech, Trump also addressed the issue of freedom of speech, stating that "government censorship" would be abolished in the U.S. and that freedom of expression would reach a new level.

Among other statements, the president made the following remarks:

• Trump expressed his intention to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America and to regain control of the Panama Canal for the United States. He noted that the canal was originally handed over to Panama, not China, and emphasized that reclaiming this asset is a priority.
• The president promised that the U.S. would replenish its strategic energy reserves, lower energy resource prices, and expand their export to the global market.
• He announced that American astronauts would plant the U.S. flag on the planet Mars.

Overall, in his speech, Donald Trump emphasized the strengthening of the United States' position in the world, highlighting the importance of energy independence, combating illegal immigration, and supporting national interests.

However, there were also some discriminatory statements. In particular, he expressed the belief that there are only two genders in America: male and female.

It is worth noting that 45% of Ukrainians believe that Donald Trump's election as U.S. president will contribute to achieving peace in Ukraine. Meanwhile, 23% of respondents think that under Trump's victory, peace would be mostly or entirely fair for the country.
