Trump touts his peace deals - but many are already unraveling

(NPR) President Trump has made it well known that he is coveting the Nobel Peace prize, and rarely passes up the opportunity to say he has solved eight conflicts around the world in eight months.

But despite the efforts, the results have been mixed: some outcomes are precarious, and the president's role in brokering a deal is disputed. Others have simply unraveled.

There are the ones you don't hear about so much such as Armenia and Azerbaijan. Serbia and Kosovo signed a peace agreement in 2020 during Trump's first term in office with the help of NATO and the European Union. That deal has stuck.

Trump claimed credit for securing peace between Egypt and Ethiopia. The two countries were not at war, just locked in a tense dispute over a hydroelectric dam on the Nile River.
