- He mentions that Putin praised US mediation in global conflicts.
- Again he complains that he was not given the Nobel Peace Prize.
- He says he likes stopping wars, but he also has to govern the United States.
US President Donald Trump said he has defused eight global conflicts in the past eight months, citing Pakistan-India and Gaza, and called clashes between Pakistan and Afghanistan “easy” to resolve during talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House.
“…although I understand that Pakistan attacked, or that there is an attack on Afghanistan. That’s easy for me to solve if I have to solve it,” the US president said. He said that while he was responsible for leading the United States, he truly enjoyed ending wars and bringing peace to conflict zones.
He said that while he was responsible for leading the United States, he truly enjoyed ending wars and bringing peace to conflict zones.
“All these wars had nothing to do with us, but I saved tens of millions of lives. The Prime Minister of Pakistan said I saved millions of lives by interceding with Pakistan, and let’s take Pakistan and India as examples. It would have been bad, two nuclear nations, right?” said.
“I have resolved eight conflicts, including the one in the Middle East. This [Ukraine-Russia] I thought it would have been among the easiest. [Russian President Vladimir] “Putin mentioned yesterday: Armenia, you know, all the different wars.”
He said it was amazing, but the big issue that surprised him that we were able to solve it was the Middle East.
Zelensky came to Washington seeking weapons to bolster his country’s forces in the three-year conflict between Ukraine and Russia. However, Trump frequently highlighted his peace summit with Putin, which took place just weeks earlier, while he and Zelenskiy spoke to reporters.
That meeting was hastily arranged on Thursday, making clear that Trump remains determined to negotiate a peace deal and take the wind out of Zelenskiy’s missile speech.
Before his private lunch with Zelenskiy, Trump said the two leaders would discuss his call with Putin the day before. He once again reiterated his conviction that his efforts deserve the Nobel Peace Prize.
“It’s funny how people say if you understand this one, every time I do one, they forget about that one. I solved eight wars. Go to Rwanda and the Congo. Talk about India and Pakistan.”
“Look at Thailand. Every time I solve one, they say, ‘If you solve the next one, you’ll get the Nobel Prize.’ I didn’t get a Nobel Prize.
“As if someone understood, she’s a very nice, very nice woman. I don’t know who she is, but she was very generous,” Trump said.
war solver
Last week, Trump had said he was aware of escalating tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan, stating that he would address the situation once he returned from the Middle East as he described himself as “good at solving wars.”
“This will be the eighth war I’ve solved, and I heard there’s a war now between Pakistan and Afghanistan. I said, I’ll have to wait until I get back. I’m doing another one. Because I’m good at solving wars,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One as he began a flight from Washington to Israel.
“Think about India, Pakistan. Think about some of the wars that were going on for years. We had one that lasted 31, another that lasted 32, another that lasted 37 years, with millions of people dead in each country, and I finished each one of them, for the most part, in one day. It’s pretty good…” he added.
‘Man of peace’
At a press conference in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, following the signing of the Gaza peace agreement, Prime Minister Shehbaz described President Trump as a “genuine man of peace” who had worked tirelessly and tirelessly to end global conflicts, including the war in Gaza.
Joined by the US president and other world leaders, the prime minister said the world was witnessing “one of the greatest days in contemporary history”.
“He has brought peace not only to South Asia, saving millions of lives, but also to the Middle East through his efforts in Gaza.”
The prime minister stressed that peace had been achieved after months of tireless diplomatic efforts led by President Trump, who has made the world “a place to live in peace and prosperity.”
He hailed Trump as “the man the world needs most right now,” adding that history will remember him as the leader who “stopped seven and today eight wars.”
“If it had not been for this man [Trump]”, Shehbaz said, “a full-scale war could have broken out between two nuclear powers. “His timely intervention prevented the catastrophe.”
The prime minister concluded by saying that Trump’s “visionary and exemplary leadership” had made him a symbol of hope and peace for the world, and that his name “will be remembered with golden words.”
