Ended 7 Wars, Including Those Between India and Pakistan, That Were Supposedly Impossible to end: Trump at UN General Assembly

India and Pakistan: Addressing the 80th session of the UN General Assembly, President Donald Trump said he had achieved what others considered impossible in just seven months. He claimed to have ended seven wars that were supposedly impossible to end and reiterated his role in brokering a peace deal between India and Pakistan in May this year. India has completely rejected Trump’s claim, but the US President has remained adamant and reiterated the same claim at the UN on Tuesday.

“I ended seven wars in just seven months that were supposedly impossible to end,” Trump told world leaders. “People said these wars would never end. Some had been ongoing for 31 years, while one had been going on for 36 years. I ended seven wars, all of which were killing thousands of people.”

The President also listed the conflicts he claimed to have resolved, including those between Cambodia and Thailand, Serbia and Kosovo, Congo and Rwanda, India and Pakistan, Israel and Iran, Egypt and Ethiopia, and Armenia and Azerbaijan.

Trump, who has never hidden his desire to win the Nobel Peace Prize, has repeatedly claimed that he played a key role in brokering a peace deal between India and Pakistan after India attacked terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. India launched the attack after a deadly attack on tourists in Pahalgam on April 22.

Since May 10, when Trump announced on social media that India and Pakistan had agreed to a “full and immediate” ceasefire after Washington’s mediation, the US President has reiterated this claim in several conferences and speeches, most recently at the UN.

India has consistently maintained that the agreement with Pakistan was reached through direct talks between the military officials of the two countries, with no role played by any third party. This month, Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar told Al Jazeera that “India has never agreed to third-party mediation on bilateral issues.” Dar added, “We have no problem with third-party involvement, but India has consistently stated that this is a bilateral matter.”
