At the heart of his accolade claim lies the assertion that he has successfully brought an end to eight wars within a single year.

“Realistically, only two and a half, or to be more generous, three of those can be confirmed as accurate,” experts suggest.

So, which wars does he assert to have resolved, and what is the true state of affairs?

There is some truth to his claim, at least in part.

However, according to the United Nations, since the ceasefire was established, around 300 individuals have lost their lives.

“That’s hardly a war that’s ended,” Zala said.

“That kind of feels like the war is still going on, but that still doesn’t take away the fact that the US chose to go out of its way to help to broker a ceasefire.”

The two former Soviet countries have been in a territorial dispute for decades which turned violent.

At the centre of the conflict is a province that Armenia considers part of its territory but is entirely within Azerbaijani borders.

But on August 8 last year, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev signed a peace agreement in the White House.

“The US hosted a signing ceremony, but the peace had already been agreed almost six months earlier,” Zala said.

“So I don’t really think that one counts.”

The US did officially broker a peace agreement between the two countries last year.

But it’s a fragile agreement, Zala said.

“The claim that he’s ended the war – well, not really,” he said.

“People are literally dying still.”

This claim is the most solid of the eight.

Several dozen soldiers had been killed in the border dispute between the south-east Asian countries.

“It does seem like the president himself was the key actor there by getting on the phone, and effectively he threatened to end trade talks with both of them,” Zala said.

“So it was a pretty smart use of US economic power.”

But Zala noted the conflict was “probably edging towards a conclusion”.

But the claim that Trump ended a war between Israel and Iran is “absurd”, Zala said.

“The US didn’t broker a peace agreement because there is no peace agreement. 

“Both sides just ran out of steam.

“And the US actually joined the war. The US bombed Iran.”

Tensions have existed between the two countries for as long as both of them have existed.

“The talks regarding cessation of military action were held directly between India and Pakistan under the existing channels established between both militaries,” Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said.

Trump’s involvement seemed like an exaggeration from the White House, Australian National University’s Wesley Widmaier said.

“What India and Pakistan do has much more to do with India and Pakistan than the US,” he told nine.com.au.

“That is not to slight the US – it’s just that they are major powers and reach their own conclusions.”

The president’s claim to have ended a war between Egypt and Ethiopia is a bizarre one.

There were tensions between the two over an Ethiopian dam that inhibited water flow into the Nile.

“There was no war. Conflict hadn’t broken out. And so to say that he’s brought a war to an end is just sort of absurd,” Zala said.

The same goes between these two Balkan nations.

Despite a long history of violence, Kosovo and Serbia have not been in an armed conflict.

“There have been tensions, but there hasn’t been war,” Zala said.

“Actually, the EU is a much, much more important player in that dispute than the US is.”
