Former US President Donald Trump has once again made a sensational claim regarding India-Pakistan relations, stating that he prevented a possible nuclear war between the two nations. Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump said that if he had not intervened, tensions could have escalated into a nuclear conflict.

He added that during the crisis, seven fighter jets, each worth nearly $150 million, were shot down, and the actual figures were never fully reported.Trump claimed he directly engaged with both sides, speaking with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi—whom he described as a “terrific man”—as well as Pakistani leaders.

He said he threatened to cancel trade deals if the two nations did not step back from confrontation.
