    US President Donald Trump on Friday reiterated his claim of mediating peace between India and Pakistan, asserting that he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for his role – but “won’t get it.” The remarks were made in a lengthy post on his social media platform, Truth Social, where Trump also highlighted his role in resolving multiple global conflicts.“I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for this, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the War between India and Pakistan, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the War between Serbia and Kosovo, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for keeping Peace between Egypt and Ethiopia,” Trump wrote.He added: “and I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for doing the Abraham Accords in the Middle East which, if all goes well, will be loaded to the brim with additional Countries signing on, and will unify the Middle East for the first time in ‘The Ages!’ No, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize no matter what I do, including Russia/Ukraine, and Israel/Iran, whatever those outcomes may be, but the people know, and that’s all that matters to me!”The comments came on the heels of what Trump described as a “wonderful treaty” between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Republic of Rwanda.However, India has firmly denied any foreign mediation in its engagement with Pakistan. In a conversation with President Trump, Prime Minister Narendra Modi clarified that India rejects any form of external mediation in its bilateral matters with Pakistan.India will never countenance any form of mediation in its relations with Pakistan and there was no discussion at any level between India and the US about the proposed trade deal, or American intervention, during the events that unfolded after Operation Sindoor, PM Modi told Trump in his recent telephonic conversation.Tensions between India and Pakistan flared following the April 22 terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam. India conducted precision strikes on terror infrastructure located in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in the early hours of May 7. Pakistan retaliated with attempted strikes on Indian military installations on May 8, 9, and 10, which were met with strong responses from India.Hostilities ceased after a mutual understanding was reached between the Directors General of Military Operations (DGMOs) of both nations on May 10. India has consistently maintained that this de-escalation was achieved through direct military-to-military dialogue and not through any third-party intervention.
