Detailing briefings from key aides—VP JD Vance, envoy Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner—Trump described the exhaustive 20-plus-hour session spearheaded by Army Chief Asim Munir and Sharif. ‘These are fantastic people who never stop thanking me for preventing the deaths of 30-50 million in that terrible India war. It makes me feel terrific every time,’ he shared.

Trump’s latest remarks echo his recent White House claim of terminating eight conflicts, spotlighting the Indo-Pak standoff. Sharif, he said, personally credited him with saving tens of millions of lives.

The backdrop: Last May’s surge in hostilities followed India’s retaliatory ‘Operation Sindoor’ against terror bases deep inside Pakistan after the Pahalgam outrage. While Trump insists he brokered peace, New Delhi has dismissed his version outright.

The post pivoted to international diplomacy, critiquing Iran’s intransigence on the Strait of Hormuz and atomic ambitions. Trump asserted his administration destroyed Iran’s mine-laying vessels and navy, demanding immediate compliance to restore the vital sea lane and uphold global norms.

As Trump eyes future engagements, his narrative blends personal vindication with hardline foreign policy stances, keeping the spotlight on past triumphs and current threats.
