Trump Backtracks on Kashmir Mediation Claim, Says ‘I Helped, Didn’t Mediate’

Doha: US President Donald Trump has backtracked from his own claim regarding the India-Pakistan conflict in Doha, the capital of Qatar. He rejected the claim of mediation while addressing the American soldiers in Doha. However, he definitely said that he definitely helped in solving this problem. However, India, not giving any importance to Trump's claim, had bluntly said that the ceasefire between India and Pakistan happened after mutual talks.


What did Trump say now?


Trump said, "I won't say that I did, but I certainly helped resolve the growing tension between India and Pakistan last week." He said, "The situation was getting more tense and suddenly, you start seeing different types of missiles there, but we resolved it." The US President said, "I think it is resolved. We also talked to them (India and Pakistan) about trade. Said - let's do trade, not war. Pakistan was very happy with this, India was also very happy with this and I think they are moving in the right direction now." What did Trump say earlier? Trump claimed on Monday that he forced both the countries to end the hostility by raising the issue of trade cuts. Trump said in a press conference at the White House that he told India and Pakistan that if they stopped the conflict, America would do 'a lot of trade' with them. He said, "We will do a lot of trade with you guys. Let's stop it. If you stop it, we will do trade. If you don't stop it, we're not going to do any trade."


Trump patted himself on the back


Trump said, "I can tell you that people have never used trade the way I did. And suddenly they (India and Pakistan) said, 'I think we're going to stop it.'" Trump claimed, "And they have done that and they have done that for many reasons, but trade is a big reason. We're going to do a lot of trade with Pakistan. We're going to do a lot of trade with India. We're negotiating with India right now. We're going to be negotiating with Pakistan soon, and we have prevented a nuclear conflict."
