US President Donald Trump on Monday (local time) again falsely claimed that he stopped the escalation of the recent India-Pakistan conflict after the Pahalgam terror attack.

Trump said that the fight would have turned nuclear, and that stopping the conflict was essential.

"We stopped a lot of fights, very, very big one was India and Pakistan. We stopped that over trade. We are dealing with India and Pakistan. We said that we are not going to be dealing with you at all if you are gonna fight. They were maybe at a nuclear stage...Stopping that was really important," he said.
