When you go to wars, it costs you a hundred times what it costs to make peace,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump noted that while he had previously endorsed candidates within the United States, he was now also acknowledging foreign leaders for their roles in promoting stability. Among those he praised was Pakistan\u2019s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPrime Minister Sharif \u2014 I like this man \u2014 of Pakistan,\u201d Trump said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBecause there was some fighting going on when I got to know him and your Field Marshal, great general, great Field Marshal, great guy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201dRecalling a meeting attended by White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Trump said Prime Minister Shehbaz had publicly credited him with preventing a major war between Pakistan and India. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHe said in front of our Chief of Staff Susie Wiles that \u2018nobody knows this, but I believe that President Trump saved 25 million lives when he stopped the war between us and India,\u2019\u201d Trump stated, addressing the Pakistani premier directly: \u201cYou made that statement \u2026 it was really a beautiful thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201dReferring to the four-day conflict between Pakistan and India in May 2025, Trump described the situation as intense and dangerous. \u201cThat war was raging, planes were being shot down,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He explained that he personally contacted both Islamabad and New Delhi after learning of the escalation. Trump said he was already familiar with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and had developed ties with Pakistan through trade discussions.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I got on the phone with both of them,\u201d Trump said. \u201cI told them, I am not doing trade deals with you two guys if you don\u2019t settle this up.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Trump, both countries initially resisted but reconsidered when faced with economic consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He further revealed that he warned both nations of imposing a 200 percent tariff if hostilities continued. \u201cOne of them, I won\u2019t say which one, said, \u2018No! You can\u2019t do that.\u2019 They both wanted to fight, but when it came to losing a lot of money, they said, \u2018We don\u2019t want to fight.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201dTrump claimed the crisis was resolved within two to three days through diplomatic engagement and economic pressure. \u201cWe solved that \u2026 in two to three days,\u201d he said, reiterating his appreciation for Prime Minister Shehbaz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Describing the conflict as more serious than publicly acknowledged, Trump said, \u201cA lot of them say they weren\u2019t fighting. But they were fighting. Eleven jets were shot down, very expensive jets.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added that significant progress had since been made in bilateral relations, calling Modi \u201ca great man and a great guy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Turning to broader global institutions, President Trump said the United Nations had \u201cgreat potential\u201d but had not yet fully realized it. However, he expressed optimism about reform and renewed support.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Someday, I will not be here, but the Board of Peace will become stronger. We are going to strengthen the UN. We will help it money-wise,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Board of Peace meeting is aimed at overseeing post-war stabilization, reconstruction, and humanitarian coordination efforts, particularly in Gaza, while also serving as a broader diplomatic platform to prevent future regional conflicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington: US President Donald Trump has said that the newly formed Board of Peace comprises mostly leaders from Middle Eastern countries as well as representatives from across the world, emphasizing&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1415,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[549,100,294,33],"class_list":["post-1414","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world","tag-board-of-peace","tag-donald-trump","tag-gaza","tag-shehbaz-sharif"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
