US President Donald Trump reiterated his claim that he has successfully prevented multiple international conflicts, including between India and Pakistan, and argued that he deserves multiple Nobel Peace Prizes for these efforts. Speaking at the American Cornerstone Institute Founder's Dinner, Trump highlighted his record in forging peace agreements and stopping wars, asserting that these actions have earned the United States unprecedented respect on the world stage.
Trump specifically cited India and Pakistan, as well as Thailand and Cambodia, claiming he resolved their conflicts through trade, emphasizing that mutual economic interests helped avert potential hostilities. He said he held both Indian and Pakistani leaders in high regard and insisted that trade was the key factor in halting tensions, particularly given the nuclear capabilities of both nations.
Extending his list, Trump claimed to have stopped conflicts in several other regions, including Armenia and Azerbaijan, Kosovo and Serbia, Israel and Iran, Egypt and Ethiopia, and Rwanda and the Congo. He asserted that roughly 60 percent of these conflict resolutions were achieved through trade negotiations.
Addressing the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, Trump stated that he had been advised he should receive a Nobel Prize if he managed to stop that war. He countered that he had already stopped seven other wars and suggested that each should merit a separate Nobel award. Trump expressed confidence that his relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin could help resolve the Ukraine situation, despite his admitted disappointment in Putin, adding that he expected the conflict to be one of the easier ones to address.
