US President Donald Trump, for the first time, claimed that "two very smart leaders of India and Pakistan" decided not to continue a war that could have turned nuclear.
This is the first time Trump did not credit himself for stopping the hostilities between India and Pakistan after the Indian armed forces launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, in response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. He made these remarks while speaking to the reporters at the Oval Office after hosting Pakistan's Field Marshal Asim Munir for lunch at the White House on Wednesday (local time).
