Overview

• Speaking on Air Force One, at the Knesset and in Sharm el-Sheikh, President Donald Trump called the Gaza truce his “eighth” resolved conflict and again said tariff threats ended India–Pakistan hostilities in May.
• New Delhi has repeatedly rejected any U.S. role, stating the May 10 cessation followed direct talks between the countries’ Directors General of Military Operations with no link to U.S. trade pressure.
• At the Egypt summit, Trump praised India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said India and Pakistan would “live very nicely together,” then invited Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to address the gathering.
• Sharif hailed Trump as a peacemaker and said Pakistan had nominated him for the Nobel Peace Prize, echoing Trump’s claim of helping halt the May crisis.
• Trump said he will turn to rising Pakistan–Afghanistan border tensions after his Middle East trip as leaders formalised the Gaza ceasefire and moved ahead with first‑phase hostage releases.
