'I won't get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the war between India and Pakistan': Trump does it again

US President Donald Trump on Saturday repeated his claim that he helped stop a war between India and Pakistan but said he will never receive a Nobel Peace Prize for it.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump listed a series of diplomatic efforts he claims credit for, while criticising the Nobel committee for ignoring them.

“I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for this, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the war between India and Pakistan,” Trump wrote, referencing recent tensions between the two countries following the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack.



India had carried out targeted strikes on terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in the early hours of May 7. In response, Pakistan launched attempted strikes on Indian military positions on May 8, 9, and 10. The exchange ended on May 10 following a understanding reached after direct military-level talks between the two sides.

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a 35-minute telephonic conversation with Trump earlier this week had 'clearly' told the US President that there was no third-party involvement in the ceasefire talks between India and Pakistan.

Modi told Trump that the ceasefire was the result of Director General of Military Operations (DGMO)-level dialogue, while Trump repeatdly claimed that the de-escalation followed American diplomatic engagement.

He has repeated the claim several times, stating the U.S. urged both sides to end hostilities and promised enhanced trade ties in return.

The US President claimed that he will never be awarded a Nobel Peace Prize, even as he he arranged a peace treaty between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Republic of Rwanda like he did for othere nations.

I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the War between Serbia and Kosovo, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for keeping Peace between Egypt and Ethiopia (A massive Ethiopian built dam, stupidly financed by the United States of America, substantially reduces the water flowing into The Nile River)," Trump said.

Trump also referenced his previous diplomatic push in the Middle East. “I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for doing the Abraham Accords in the Middle East which, if all goes well, will be loaded to the brim with additional Countries signing on, and will unify the Middle East for the first time in ‘The Ages!’” he said.

“No, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize no matter what I do, including Russia/Ukraine, and Israel/Iran, whatever those outcomes may be, but the people know, and that’s all that matters to me!” Trump concluded.

Meanwhile, the Pakistan government issued a statement announcing that it would formally recommend Trump for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize. A statement said, “President Trump demonstrated great strategic foresight and stellar statesmanship… ultimately securing a ceasefire and averting a broader conflict.” It also praised Trump’s past “offers” on the Kashmir issue and called his role “pivotal.”

Earlier this week, President Trump hosted Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff General Asim Munir at the White House. Speaking afterward, he said, “Reason I had him here, I want to thank him for not going into the war... ending the war.” Trump added that trade talks were underway with both India and Pakistan.
