US President Donald Trump has once again claimed credit for brokering peace deals between nations, specifically highlighting his role in resolving conflicts between India and Pakistan, as well as Azerbaijan and Armenia.
Trump asserted that his administration played a significant role in brokering a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, which was on the brink of a nuclear conflict.
“Today’s signing follows our success with India and Pakistan. They were going at it. They were going at it big. And they were great leaders that came together just prior to what would have been a tremendous conflict, as you know, a nuclear conflict probably,” Trump said.
However, Indian officials, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, have consistently denied any US involvement in the peace process, attributing the ceasefire to direct military-to-military communication.
Trump also claimed credit for brokering a peace accord between Azerbaijan and Armenia, which had been embroiled in a 37-year conflict. The peace accord was signed at the White House, with Trump emphasising his role in promoting peace worldwide.
“The tariffs have helped, gives us not only the money, but it gives us great power over enemies. We solved five wars Pakistan and India. Azerbaijan and Armenia it was raging for 37 years, and the two leaders got up and they said, we never thought this would be solved. Russia tried to solve it. They all tried to solve it. It was a very tough situation, but we got it done,” he said
