In a stunning revelation, US President Donald Trump revealed how the United States prevented a nuclear disaster by threatening to cut trade ties with both India and Pakistan.
“We told them—stop the fighting or we walk away from trade,”
Trump declared at a White House press conference. The explosive comments came as he described the tense standoff between the two nations, which, according to him, was just moments from escalating into a nuclear conflict.
Trump credited Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio for their behind-the-scenes efforts. “They worked tirelessly, contacting both countries’ leaders,” he said.
Acknowledging the gravity of the situation, Trump emphasized, “We acted fast, and we stopped a nuclear war.”
He also revealed that talks with Pakistan are set to take place soon and offered continued US support on economic and diplomatic fronts. “We’re ready to assist both nations in their pursuit of peace,” he added, lauding their leadership for their unwavering commitment.
