WASHINGTON: U.S. President Donald Trump once again brought up the possibility of an India-Pakistan conflict while speaking to journalists in the Oval Office, also addressing questions on the latest situation in Gaza.
According to global news agencies, Trump claimed that during the recent conflict, Pakistan had shot down seven Indian aircraft, which created fears of a potential nuclear confrontation. He said that at this critical moment, he intervened and warned both countries that the United States would not maintain trade relations if hostilities continued.
Trump asserted that his strong stance successfully prevented the escalation of war between the two nuclear-armed neighbors.
Analysts note that tensions between India and Pakistan have periodically escalated over issues such as Kashmir and cross-border attacks, raising international concerns over the possibility of a larger conflict.
Experts say that interventions by global powers can sometimes play a role in de-escalating such high-risk situations.
While speaking to the press, Trump also responded to questions regarding the ongoing developments in Gaza, although details on his comments were not disclosed.
