**Trump Claims Credit for India-Pakistan Ceasefire, Seeks Nobel Peace Prize**
**New York/Washington – September 21, 2025** – Former U.S. President Donald Trump has reiterated his claim that he brokered peace between India and Pakistan earlier this year, attributing the resolution to trade leverage and asserting that he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for ending multiple conflicts.
Speaking at the American Cornerstone Institute Founder’s Dinner on Saturday, Mr. Trump stated that his administration “stopped wars between India and Pakistan, Thailand and Cambodia,” along with other global conflicts. He attributed the success to using trade as a bargaining chip, claiming he told India, “look, we’re not going to do any trade if you’re going to fight.”
The claim stems from the cessation of hostilities between India and Pakistan on May 10th, following India’s “Operation Sindoor,” launched in retaliation for a terrorist attack. Mr. Trump initially announced the ceasefire on social media, stating it came after U.S.-mediated talks. However, the Indian government has consistently denied any third-party intervention, maintaining that the understanding was reached through direct talks between the Directors General of Military Operations (DGMOs) of the two countries.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar have publicly stated that no other nation intervened in bringing about the ceasefire during Operation Sindoor.
Mr. Trump also mentioned his efforts towards ending the Russia-Ukraine conflict, expressing disappointment that the conflict was not easily resolved. He mentioned being told if he stopped the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, he should get the Nobel Prize. He responded by saying “Well, what about the seven others? I should get a Nobel Prize for each one.”
