US Claims Role In Ceasefire, India Rejects
On May 10, moments before the official ceasefire announcement from India and Pakistan, US President Donald Trump took to Truth Social and claimed that his administration had played a key role in an immediate ceasefire.
On May 31, Trump again claimed he stopped India and Pakistan from fighting, saying his administration won't trade with countries at war. Trump repeated this claim, stating he prevented a potential nuclear war between the two nations through diplomacy. India, however, maintains that the conflict ended due to direct talks between military operations directors of both countries, not trade discussions.
During a press conference in the Oval Office, Trump said, "We stopped India and Pakistan from fighting. I believe that could have turned out into a nuclear disaster," as quoted by AFP.
However, India has denied this claim and stated that Trump played no such role. Comments made by Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar reflect the same.
"The cessation of firing was agreed upon between the military commanders of both sides through direct contact. The morning before, we effectively hit and incapacitated Pakistan's main airbases and air defence system. So, who should I thank for the cessation of hostilities? I thank the Indian military because it was the Indian military action that made Pakistan say: We are ready to stop," the EAM was quoted as saying.
