In a recent address, President Donald Trump claimed that his threats to terminate trade agreements led to a peace agreement between India and Pakistan. He recounted how, upon learning of escalating military tensions between the two nuclear-armed nations, he insisted that no trade deals would be made unless they agreed to peace. Following his ultimatum, Trump stated that he received a call confirming that both countries had agreed to cease hostilities. Since the announcement of a ceasefire on May 10, 2025, Trump has frequently reiterated his role in resolving the conflict, despite India's consistent denial of any external mediation. He also mentioned his involvement in resolving other international conflicts, asserting that the U.S. is making peace through strength.
