In a stunning twist, former President Donald Trump is earning rare praise for brokering a sudden ceasefire between nuclear rivals India and Pakistan. After a deadly attack in Kashmir led to escalating airstrikes in May, Trump unexpectedly announced that both nations had agreed to an immediate truce—one he personally helped negotiate.

Pakistan responded by praising Trump’s diplomacy and even pledged to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize. Trump also claims credit for behind-the-scenes roles in easing tensions in Congo-Rwanda and Serbia-Kosovo, following his earlier work on the Abraham Accords in the Middle East.

Critics remain skeptical, warning these ceasefires may be short-lived and accusing Trump of seeking accolades. Still, even some skeptics admit his approach—bold, personal, and unconventional—seems to get results.

Whether motivated by ego or genuine intent, Trump’s hands-on diplomacy has again reshaped global conversations. He may not win the Nobel Prize, but in a world desperate for de-escalation, his efforts are impossible to ignore.

Lesson: In diplomacy, results often speak louder than reputation. Even the most polarizing figures can become peacemakers when action replaces rhetoric—and the world is always watching.
