Stopped 8 wars: Donald Trump reiterates claim of India-Pakistan ceasefire through tariff threat

US President Donald Trump claimed he single-handedly averted a nuclear conflict between India and Pakistan by threatening both with 200% tariffs. He asserted this economic pressure stopped eight wars, including the India-Pakistan standoff following the April terror attack. However, India has consistently stated the de-escalation was achieved solely through bilateral military talks, rejecting any US mediation.
