US President Donald Trump has said that about 4-5 fighter aircraft were killed during the enmity between India and Pakistan in May. At the same time, he once again claimed that he intermedized in the ceasefire between the two nuclear -rich countries in the name of business. However, the US President made this comment during a dinner with some Republican MPs at the White House, but he did not clarify whether the aircraft belonged to India or Pakistan. Donald Trump gave this statement highlighting the role of his administration in almost calming the war situation between two nuclear -rich neighbors.
There is no official confirmation or evidence supporting Trump’s specific claim of killing five aircraft.
Donald Trump said in a dinner with some Republican American MPs at the White House We stopped many wars. And these were serious wars, India and Pakistan, which were running. The aircraft were being dropped from there. I think five jets were actually killed. These are two serious nuclear-rich countries, and they were attacking each other. You know, it appears to be a new form of war.

Trump has repeatedly credited the ceasefire between India and Pakistan, which he announced on social media on May 10, when Washington interacted with both sides. India has disagreed with Trump’s claim that this has occurred due to his intervention and threats to end business talks.
India’s attitude has been that New Delhi and Islamabad should solve their problems directly and without any external intervention. Trump once again blamed the trade agreement for the India-Pakistan ceasefire agreement, a claim that India has clearly denied. But India and Pakistan were talking about it, and they were moving back and forth, and it was increasing, and we solved it through business. We said, you guys want to make a business agreement. If you are a very powerful nuclear power -rich country if you are both arms, and perhaps nuclear weapons, then we are not doing business compromises. “
Trump reiterates ceasefire claim
Meanwhile, at the same event, Trump once again said that his administration helped stop a major war between India and Pakistan, and claimed that he reduced stress “through trade”.
This happened when Prime Minister Narendra Modi clearly told the President during a phone call that America had no role in conducting a ceasefire and there was no discussion on business during the struggle.
Trump said, “We have stopped many wars. And these were serious wars. India and Pakistan were talking on it, and they were moving back and forth, and it was increasing, and we solved it through trade.”
