US President Donald Trump claims that he was the one who stopped the war between two nuclear powers - India and Pakistan.

As Ukrinform reports, he told reporters about this on Wednesday near the White House.

"I stopped the war between Pakistan and India," Trump said."I love Pakistan. I think (Indian Prime Minister Narendra) Modi is a fantastic person. I spoke to him last night."

According to Trump, he and Modi are going to make a trade deal. But I stopped the war between Pakistan and India,” he repeated, praising the Indian Prime Minister and Pakistan’s Army Chief Asim Munir, with whom he is scheduled to meet at the White House on Wednesday.

"They are both nuclear countries, and I stopped it," the president noted, adding that this fact was not sufficiently covered.

"Has there been a single article written about how I stopped a war between the two largest nuclear-armed countries? I don't think there's been an article written about that," he said.

As reported, the escalation of the military conflict between India and Pakistan took place on May 7–10, 2025. The ceasefire was achieved after a telephone conversation between the chiefs of general staff of both countries.

Foreign Minister Vikram Misri stressed that the ceasefire was achieved through negotiations between the Indian and Pakistani militaries, and not through US mediation.
