On July 13, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev condemned the shooting of Donald Trump, the likely presidential candidate from the Republican Party, at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. President Aliyev wrote on the X platform: "The attack against President Trump causes shock and horror. We strongly condemn this act of political violence. We wish President Trump a speedy recovery."

Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze also expressed his shock on social media: "Deeply shocked by the attack on former US President Donald Trump. Violence has no place in politics; we condemn it in all forms. I wish President Trump a swift and complete recovery. My thoughts are with him and his family. We stand together with the American people!"

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan added, "We strongly condemn the attack on 45th President & presidential candidate Donald Trump. Such acts of violence have no place in a democratic society, as they undermine the core principles of democracy & rule of law that we deeply value. I wish Donald Trump a speedy recovery."

Notably, former US President Donald Trump was shot in the ear during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. Although his life is not in danger, one rally participant was killed, and two others are in grave condition. The incident occurred while Trump was addressing supporters. The FBI described the shooting as an assassination attempt against the former president. Authorities identified the gunman as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, whom Secret Service agents killed at the scene.
