Former President Donald Trump has expressed confidence in brokering a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, drawing parallels to his claimed success in easing tensions between India and Pakistan.

Amid escalating violence, with Iranian missiles striking Israeli cities and a rising death toll—224 dead in Iran, mostly civilians, and 14 in Israel—Trump stated, "I hope there’s going to be a deal. I think it’s time for a deal." He emphasized ongoing diplomatic efforts, saying, "many calls and meetings are now taking place" to facilitate peace.

Trump highlighted his previous role in reducing conflict between India and Pakistan, asserting on his social media platform Truth Social, "Iran and Israel should make a deal, and will make a deal, just like I got India and Pakistan to make." He also lamented that despite his interventions in global conflicts, he "never gets credit."

The conflict has raised international concerns, with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards claiming new missile tactics against Israel, though unverified. The violence threatens to escalate into a broader Middle East war, a key topic at the recent G7 summit.

Trump’s statements come as world leaders seek to de-escalate the crisis, with his approach focusing on leveraging past diplomatic successes to encourage a ceasefire between two longstanding regional adversaries.
