US President Donald Trump on Wednesday reiterated his claim of having stopped eight wars, including a “nuclear war” between India and Pakistan. However, he dropped a bombshell during his State of the Union address, saying he had saved Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif from being killed by intervening to stop India’s Operation Sindoor.
He further claimed that the Shehbaz Shariff told him 35 million people in Pakistan would have been killed during last year’s Operation Sindoor had he not stepped in.
“In my first 10 months, I ended eight wars… Pakistan and India would have had a nuclear war. 35 million people said the Prime Minister of Pakistan would have died if it were not for my involvement,” he said.
Trump made these claims while touting his achievements during his first State of the Union address of his second term, saying he had ended eight wars in his first 10 months in the Oval Office.
The conflicts he has claimed to have resolved include those between Israel and Hamas, Israel and Iran, Egypt and Ethiopia, India and Pakistan, Serbia and Kosovo, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, Armenia and Azerbaijan, and Cambodia and Thailand.
