On Tuesday night, Donald Trump once again claimed credit for the ceasefire in the India-Pakistan conflict and also said that both countries were very close to a nuclear war.
US President Donald Trump on Tuesday night said “ We stopped wars between India-Pakistan that were going to result in a major nuclear war. They shot down five jets during the 4 day conflict, it was back and forth, back and forth. I called them and said I will not trade with you guys if you do this. They are both powerful nuclear nations, and who knows where that would have ended up and I stopped it. “
The opposition party in India has continually targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his silence on Donald Trump’s repeated claims.
Meanwhile the congress leader Jairam Ramesh wrote on X that “ As the modi government continues in its refusal to give firm dates for a debate on pahalgam-sindoor in parliament and as the modi government persists in its refusal to commit to a reply by the PM in the debate, President Trump reaches the silver-jubilee the quarter century mark on his claim. He has trumpeted 25 times in the last 73 days but the Prime Minister of India is totally quiet, finding time to travel abroad and to destabilize democratic institutions at home.’ He said
