Only I can fix it

Nobody else could have stopped the India-Pakistan fighting

“Now, am I going to get credit? I'll never get credit for anything. They don't give me credit for anything. But nobody else could have done it. I stopped it. I was very proud of that.”

What happened

India disputed his role. PolitiFact reported that on July 30, 2025, India's external affairs minister S. Jaishankar rejected third-party mediation and said no foreign leader asked India to stop its operations, while Pakistan thanked Trump. PolitiFact rated his July 28, 2025 claim to have "stopped six wars" Mostly False and his September 2025 U.N. claim to have "ended seven unendable wars" Mostly False.
