Trump's Bold Claims: Mediating War Between Nuclear Neighbors

In a bold statement delivered from his Turnberry golf resort in Scotland, former US President Donald Trump declared that his intervention had averted a nuclear clash between India and Pakistan. He argued that his threat to halt trade deals pressured the neighboring nations into talks, diffusing tensions he claimed were leading up to war.

Trump was addressing the media alongside British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and reiterated his self-proclaimed role as a global peacemaker, asserting that he had stopped 'six major wars' worldwide, including the critical standoff between the two South Asian nuclear powers.

Despite India's strong rebuttal of any diplomatic intervention by the US during their military operation against Pakistan-backed terrorists, Trump's remarks underscore his narrative of decisive action in international conflicts, while critics question his claims' validity.
