- On September 23, 2025, US President Donald Trump claimed at the 80th UN General Assembly in New York that he ended seven long-standing wars within seven months of his presidency.
- Trump linked this claim to his role in defusing the India-Pakistan ceasefire earlier in May, although India denied any third-party involvement and maintained the truce was a bilateral decision.
- He explained during a media briefing alongside UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer that he had warned India about imposing trade sanctions if the conflict persisted, citing their nuclear arsenal as a key factor that contributed to securing a ceasefire.
- Trump listed the resolved conflicts as including Cambodia-Thailand, Kosovo-Serbia, Congo-Rwanda, Pakistan-India, Israel-Iran, Egypt-Ethiopia, and Armenia-Azerbaijan, claiming millions of lives were saved from these wars.
- He expressed frustration that the UN did not support his peace initiatives, noting that despite ending seven wars and engaging with numerous world leaders, he never received any recognition or outreach from the organization, and he claimed he was deserving of several Nobel Peace Prizes for these accomplishments.
