@africanvoicenewspaper: US President Donald Trump, addressing the United Nations General Assembly on September 23, 2025, claimed he has “ended seven wars” since returning to office, asserting that “no president or prime minister has ever done anything close to that.” Trump, speaking amid strained global ties over Gaza and Ukraine, touted his diplomatic feats without specifics, saying, “I ended seven unendable wars... dealt with the leaders of each and every one of these countries, and never even received a phone call from the United Nations offering to help in finalizing the deal.” He contrasted this with the UN’s “empty words,” positioning himself as a peacemaker deserving Nobel recognition. The claim, repeated from a September 18 press conference with UK PM Keir Starmer, refers to five ceasefires or agreements since January: Armenia-Azerbaijan (August 8 White House deal ending Nagorno-Karabakh hostilities), Yemen’s Houthi truce, Sudan-South Sudan border pact, a Colombian ELN ceasefire, and a Philippines-Moro peace extension. Trump has loosely credited two more, including a Haiti gang standoff resolution and a Libya militia accord, though experts dispute full “endings” as conflicts persist. PolitiFact and fact-checkers rate it misleading, noting ongoing violence and limited US attribution. Trump’s speech drew no laughs this time—unlike 2018—amid his Nobel ambitions and criticisms of “globalist decay.” He blasted the UN’s irrelevance, urging action over resolutions. Allies like the UK praised his Ukraine efforts, but Gaza statehood recognitions by 150+ nations (including recent UK/Canada/Australia moves) drew his ire as “rewards for Hamas.” #trump #unga #war #nobel #ambition
