Pakistan had praised Trump's "legacy of pragmatic diplomacy and effective peace-building" prior to the U.S. strikes.

Pakistan condemned U.S. President Donald Trump for bombing Iran, less than 24 hours after saying he deserved a Nobel Peace Prize for defusing a recent crisis with India. Relations between the two South Asian countries plummeted after a massacre of tourists in Indian-controlled Kashmir in April.

Donald Trump reignited his claim for the Nobel Peace Prize, asserting his pivotal role in resolving various global conflicts. Hours before the US bombed nuclear sites in Iran's Furdow, a reporter questioned the US President about a suggestion from Matt Gaetz regarding peace efforts between Israel and Iran.
