**Trump Claims to Have Solved Congo-Rwanda Conflict, Acknowledges Tension with India Over Russian Oil Tariffs**

**NEW YORK -** In a recent interview with ‘Fox and Friends’ on September 12, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump asserted he has successfully resolved seven international conflicts during his second term, including the long-standing conflict between Congo and Rwanda. “Congo and Rwanda, I solved it. It was going on for 31 years, millions of people killed. I solve wars that was unsolvable,” Trump stated.

The President also addressed the issue of India’s purchase of Russian oil and the subsequent imposition of a 50% tariff on the country. “Look, India was their biggest customer. I put a 50% tariff on India because they’re buying oil from Russia. That’s not an easy thing to do. That’s a big deal and it causes a rift with India,” Trump admitted. He further suggested that the situation is “much more of a Europe problem” than a U.S. one.
