WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump stated that he had stopped multiple global conflicts during his presidency, claiming to have prevented “eight wars in eight months,” as he spoke at a Ballroom Dinner event on Wednesday. “I don’t think any President has stopped one war. I stopped eight wars in eight months,” Trump said, referring to his efforts to de-escalate international crises during his tenure.
He once again claimed that he played a key role in helping de-escalate tensions between India and Pakistan, highlighting how trade and tariffs have been instrumental for the US in preventing global conflicts.
“We’re doing really well in trade. We’re taking in hundreds of billions of dollars in tariffs. The tariffs are making this country so rich, and they’re making it powerful,” Trump said,
