Trump Claims to Have Prevented Nuclear War Between India and Pakistan, Cites Seven Fighter Jets Downed

Former U.S. President Donald Trump asserted he stopped a potential nuclear war between India and Pakistan. Speaking at the White House, Trump claimed he had halted seven conflicts worldwide, including the one between India and Pakistan, which he stated was on the brink of escalating to a nuclear level. He mentioned that he used tariffs and trade as leverage in four of these conflicts, stating he would impose a 100% tariff if the involved parties insisted on fighting. Trump also claimed that seven fighter jets were downed during the India-Pakistan conflict. He threatened to halt trade if the fighting continued, leading to an immediate cessation of hostilities. However, Trump did not specify the countries to which the downed jets belonged. Indian officials have refuted Trump’s claims, asserting that the ceasefire agreement was reached through direct talks between the military officials of both nations.
