Washington: US President Donald Trump has once again made a big claim by presenting himself as a “peacemaker” at the global level. He said that his efforts had prevented eight major conflicts in the world, including the tension between India and Pakistan. According to Trump, the lives of 3 to 5 crore people could be saved by these initiatives. He also said that a possible peace agreement with Iran is very close, although Tehran has rejected many of his claims.

Did Trump really stop eight wars?

Trump said in his latest statement that he played an important role in reducing many global tensions during his tenure and even after that. He especially credited himself for averting a possible conflict between India and Pakistan. However, these claims have not been independently verified and experts believe that international conflicts are resolved through joint efforts of many countries and diplomatic processes.

What was said about the agreement with Iran?

Trump claimed in an interview that the deal with Iran is almost certain and there are no major obstacles left. According to him, this agreement will prove beneficial for all parties. He also said that the talks have progressed well and positive results may emerge soon.

Why did Tehran reject Trump's claims?

Iran has reacted strongly to Trump's statement. The Foreign Ministry there clearly said that the country will not transfer its enriched uranium reserves to any other place under any circumstances. Iranian officials also clarified that no such agreement has been reached as Trump is claiming. He says that the talks are still at the initial stage and many important issues are still to be resolved.

What is the situation regarding the Strait of Hormuz?

Trump also made a big statement regarding the Strait of Hormuz. He said that this strait is already open and it will not be closed again. According to Trump, Iran has agreed not to use it as a weapon. However, Iran has taken a different stance on this and has said that the operation of the strait is being done under its own strategy, which also includes some conditions.

Can this agreement become a reality soon?

Analysts believe that even though both sides are talking about talks, the situation on the ground level still remains complex. Many big issues like lack of trust between Iran and America, the nuclear program, and regional politics are still to be resolved. In such a situation, it may take time to reach any final agreement.

Overall, while Trump's claims are giving rise to new discussions in global politics, Iran's reaction shows that the real situation is still not as simple as it is being said.
