Trump Renames US Institute of Peace

Trump Renames US Institute of Peace

The US Institute of Peace, which helps with peace efforts around the world, has been renamed to the Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace.

The Trump administration says this is to honor the president's work in making peace deals.

However, there is a big legal fight about who should control the institute.

A court has already said the government's takeover was illegal, but the government is still in control while they appeal.

The building will be used for a peace agreement signing between Congo and Rwanda.

The institute was created by Congress in the 1980s and works in many conflict zones.

There is also talk that Trump might get a new peace prize from FIFA.
