“I settled 8 Wars, with letters being sent from every President and Prime Minister from the countries that I helped to the Norwegian Nobel Committee, and I’m about to settle, or win, two more, Iran and, Russia/Ukraine. They’re both happening at breakneck speed but, forget them, it’s the 8 that I’ve already settled, any one of which, in particular, Pakistan and India, would be far more than necessary to win the Nobel Prize. In actuality, I should have won 8 Nobel Peace Prizes, not just 1. The 8 Wars are: Cambodia and Thailand Kosovo and Serbia The Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda Pakistan and India Israel and Iran Egypt and Ethiopia Armenia and Azerbaijan Israel and Hamas”

Fact Check Performed On October 11, 2026

OUTRIGHT LIE

Multiple independent fact-checks, including CNN and National Post analyses published around the claim, conclude that at least five of the eight listed conflicts were not wars, were not settled by Trump, or remain ongoing. For example, Egypt-Ethiopia was a dam dispute with no armed conflict; Kosovo-Serbia tensions were not a war; and fighting has continued in DRC-Rwanda, Israel-Hamas, and Israel-Iran.
