What the Evidence and Fact-Checkers Say
Experts and fact-checkers have looked into these claims and find they are often overstated, misleading, or only partially true. Key points:
- Some of these “wars” weren’t full‐scale wars in the first place. They may have been tensions, border skirmishes, or diplomatic disputes. news.am+2FactCheck.org+2
- Some ceasefires or “peace deals” are fragile, not fully implemented, or only cover parts of the conflict. Violence may continue, or key parties might not be included in deals. For instance, in the Congo-Rwanda case, fighting with rebel groups continues despite diplomatic agreements. snopes.com+2FactCheck.org+2
- In several cases, other countries or sides dispute or downplay Trump’s role. E.g. India reportedly denies that Trump had a major role in ending a conflict with Pakistan. snopes.com+2news.am+2
- Some of the conflicts are ongoing (or risks of re-escalation are high). So “ended” is arguably too strong in many of those cases. news.am+2CBS News+2
- Some of the “wars” are not clearly defined or universally recognized as wars. For instance, Egypt and Ethiopia have a long-running dispute over a dam; but that is not widely seen as an active war during this period.
