US EditionDid Trump Reduce Inflation in US? Did He Resolve 8 Wars? Fact-Checking US President’s One Year in Office Speech
Trump claimed to have ended eight conflicts this year, though experts say only six ceasefires were reached and lasting peace remains uncertain, with some violence ongoing.
- On Jan. 20, 2026, President Donald Trump told Jonas Gahr Støre, Norwegian prime minister, he no longer prioritized peace after saying he had stopped eight wars, texts released by the Norwegian prime minister's office showed.
- His list of eight conflicts includes Israel-Hamas, India and Pakistan, Armenia and Azerbaijan, and Rwanda-Democratic Republic of Congo, while the U.S. has been involved in six ceasefires since January 2025 with disputed credit.
- Experts countered the claim, saying Ben Zala called it exaggerated with only about three episodes accurate, Vikram Misri said India-Pakistan talks were bilateral, and the U.N. reported 300 Gaza ceasefire deaths.
- The released texts tied his Greenland push to a failed Nobel bid, fueling tensions with Norway and prompting Emmanuel Macron to question Trump's plans as he went to Davos.
- Regionally, fighting and threats continue, as the Cambodia-Thailand July 28 ceasefire fell through and Iran warned it could strike Israel or U.S. military bases amid recent U.S. threats.
