US President Donald Trump claimed that his administration played a decisive role in stopping a potential nuclear conflict between India and Pakistan, describing the intervention as a brokered “permanent” ceasefire. Speaking at an event on Monday, May 12, Donald Trump asserted that the US helped de-escalate rising tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbours, potentially saving "millions of lives." He credited trade pressure as a key diplomatic tool, saying, “If you stop it, we’re doing trade. If you don’t stop it, we’re not going to do any trade.” Trump also thanked Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio for their efforts in the intervention. "We stopped a nuclear conflict. I think it could have been a bad nuclear war. Millions of people could have been killed. I also want to thank VP JD Vance and Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, for their work," Trump said. Donald Trump Says He Will Work With India and Pakistan for ‘Kashmir Solution’ Hours After Making Surprise Ceasefire Agreement Announcement.
