- The American president calls the Pakistan-Indian conflict “the most important” in recent times
- Trump describes Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a close friend
The Hague: US President Donald Trump on Wednesday praised Marshal Asim Munnir, which he recently met in the White House, and reiterated his position according to which he stopped the conflict last month between Pakistan and Nuclear India.
Addressing a press conference after attending the annual NATO summit in The Hague, the American president described the Pakistani-Indian conflict the “most important” of all the recents, saying that the two countries had nuclear weapons, and he ended this by a series of telephone calls on trade.
“I said, look, if you are going to fight … It became very bad … I said, if you are going to fight, then we are not going to make commercial offers,” said Trump.
Presence of Marshal Munnir, Trump, said: “I met the general of Pakistan last week in my office – a very impressive personality, a big man.”
He also described Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a close friend, declaring: “Modi is a great friend to me. A great gentleman ”.
“We have led them to reason, and I said,” We do not do any commercial agreements if you want to fight … and you know what? They said, “No, I want to do the trade agreement”, and we arrested a nuclear war, “he added.
President Trump said last month that the neighbors of Southern Nuclear Asia had accepted a cease-fire after mediated talks by the United States and that hostilities have ended after urging countries to focus on trade instead of war.
Islamabad had previously declared that the ceasefire occurred after his soldiers had made an appeal that the Indian army had initiated on May 7.
Although Pakistan has repeatedly and many times congratulated President Trump for his role in the ceasefire, which he himself highlighted on several occasions, India has denied any American involvement.
However, the American president re -reading his position and even proposed to mediate the long -standing dispute of the cashmere between the two countries – a position also highlighted by the American State Department.
Meanwhile, the Government of Pakistan also recommended Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize 2026, citing his “decisive diplomatic intervention” and “leadership pivot” during the recent crisis between Pakistan and India.
On June 18, Indian Prime Minister Modi told Trump that the ceasefire had been made by talks between Indian and Pakistani soldiers and not American mediation, according to India’s most upscale diplomat, Minister of Foreign Affairs Vikram Misri.
The heaviest fights for decades between Pakistan and India have been triggered by an attack on April 22 in Jammu and Kashmir (Iiojk), occupied the Jammu-Cachemire (Iiojk) which killed 26 people, most tourists. New Delhi blamed Pakistan for the attack, an accusation refused by Islamabad.
In response to the cross-border strikes of India, Pakistan had launched the Bunyan-UM-Marsoos operation after having shot down six Indian air force planes, including three gusts in response to the Indian aggression.
The two countries, after four days of armed conflict, agreed with a ceasefire on May 10.
