US President Donald Trump has expressed his intention to mediate the border conflict between Pakistan and Afghanistan, claiming that he can bring an end to the dispute, referring to the other wars that he has "resolved".
He made these statements as he was heading to Egypt for a summit on the Gaza peace process, which will officially mark the end of the two-year-long conflict in the Middle East, claiming it to be the eighth war he has resolved.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said, "This will be my eighth war that I have solved, and I hear there is a war now going on between Pakistan and Afghanistan."
"I said, I'll have to wait till I get back. I am doing another one. Because I am good at solving wars," he said, adding that conflicts that lasted for decades were solved 'relatively quickly'
