Trump: We've Stopped Eight Wars

The President of the United States has pledged to complete the ninth.

US President Donald Trump said in an address to Republican senators at a White House breakfast that Washington has ended eight wars and will do so with one more. The broadcast is available on the White House's YouTube channel.

"We have done a tremendous job of ending wars. We've stopped eight wars. Eight wars. We have one more to [stop], as you probably know, and this war will be stopped as well," he said.

In his second term as president, Trump has credited himself with ending eight conflicts - and not always military ones - between Thailand and Cambodia, Israel and Iran, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), India and Pakistan, Serbia and Kosovo, Egypt and Ethiopia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, and Israel and Hamas.

Even during the campaign, he promised to end Russia's war in Ukraine in one day, but after taking office he acknowledged that it would take longer. In early November, Trump expressed confidence that he could achieve a resolution to the war in Ukraine in "a couple of months."
