In his recent interview with CBS News, 60 Minutes, President Trump claimed that he stopped eight wars during an eight-month period during his second term. The wars he listed were Cambodia and Thailand, Kosova and Serbia, the Congo and Rwanda, Pakistan and India, Egypt and Ethiopia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, Israel and Iran, and Israel and Hamas. He also stated that it would be 9 wars including Russia and Ukraine, but Putin has been difficult to work with. Trump claims he was able to stop the wars through tariffs and trade, saying without them he "wouldn't have been able to make the deals". Trump's role and success in addressing and fixing these conflicts is majorly debated because he was involved in arranging ceasefires and peace agreements, but many of these conflicts were resolved by the countries directly (India and Pakistan), were not even considered wars (Egypt and Ethiopia), or are continuing to happen (The Congo and Rwanda). Trump has overall been extremely vague and general when referring to the wars he has actually ended, blurring the facts of his role and what he has done for significant foreign conflicts.
