Trump Claims Efforts Prevented Loss of Lives and Injuries

President Donald Trump has claimed that his intervention in the recent conflict between India and Pakistan, as well as his actions in Iran, have prevented significant loss of lives and injuries. In a series of statements on his Truth Social platform, Trump has detailed his role in these events and highlighted his efforts to de-escalate tensions.

Trump's claims come after Pakistan announced its intention to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in resolving the conflict between India and Pakistan [1]. The ceasefire, brokered by the U.S. president, ended a four-day conflict between the two nuclear-armed states. While Pakistan acknowledges the U.S. diplomatic intervention, India disputes the claim, stating it was a bilateral agreement between the two militaries.

Trump has also claimed credit for the U.S. strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran, stating that the attacks were a success and that the primary site, Fordow, was completely destroyed [2]. The strikes were conducted using B-2 Spirit stealth bombers and targeted Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. Trump's statements have drawn criticism from some quarters, with Iran's foreign minister describing the attacks as a "grave violation" of international law and the global Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.

The conflict between Israel and Iran has been ongoing for more than a week, with both sides suffering significant losses. Israeli strikes have killed at least 400 people in Iran and injured 3,000, while Iran's retaliatory strikes have resulted in 24 deaths in Israel [3]. The Trump administration is bracing for potential retaliation from Iran, with the next 48 hours being of particular concern.

Reaction to the U.S. strikes has been mixed, with some leaders in Latin America calling for diplomacy and condemning the attacks. Meanwhile, Trump's domestic allies have expressed support for his actions.
