During the event, Trump made a remark referencing youth and appearance while acknowledging Santiago Peña, who rose to power under the Colorado Party. What was meant to be a defining moment for a new global peace initiative instead became dominated by a personal comment that shifted attention away from serious discussions on Gaza and regional stability.
