On Tuesday, July 22, 2025, former U.S. President Donald Trump claimed he directly intervened to stop a potentially catastrophic war between India and Pakistan. Speaking at a White House reception with members of Congress, Trump said the conflict had escalated to the point where both nations shot down five fighter jets during intense military exchanges. He stated that he personally called the leaders of both countries and warned them of serious consequences, including a suspension of trade, if the conflict continued. According to Trump, his intervention successfully halted further escalation between the two nuclear-armed nations.
Trump asserted that the India-Pakistan conflict was on the brink of turning into a nuclear war, which he believed could have triggered global instability. He claimed that his actions not only stopped that crisis but also helped prevent violent clashes between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda. He credited American leadership for avoiding these major international conflicts.
